Pep ready to support ex-City manager Sven-Goran Eriksson after terminal cancer diagnosis

Pep Guardiola has conveyed his deep respect for Sven-Goran Eriksson after the former football manager disclosed that he is facing a terminal cancer diagnosis and might have less than a year to live.

Eriksson made the heartbreaking revelation on Thursday, acknowledging that, at best, he may have just over a year left. The Swedish manager, known for guiding England to the quarterfinals in three major tournaments between 2001 and 2006, had also spent a season as the manager of Manchester City.

Pep Guardiola expressed his admiration for Eriksson’s achievements and the challenges he faced, particularly during his tenure with the England national team, in light of the difficult news about Eriksson’s health.

The Spaniard said to club media: “[He’s] a true gentleman… it’s really sad news. I admire your courage to explain the situation. He’ll be with his loved ones. Of course, all of us have huge support… anything we can do, we will do it.”

The revelation about the cancer diagnosis and the limited time frame have garnered immense support for the former Manchester City manager from the football community.

Sven-Goran Eriksson, renowned for his successful stint at Lazio from 1997 to 2001, amassed numerous trophies, including the Serie A championship in 2000, the European Cup Winners’ Cup in 1999, and the Coppa Italia and Italian Supercup in 1998 and 2000, respectively.

Looking ahead, Pep Guardiola and his team are gearing up for their next match against Eddie Howe’s struggling Newcastle United. The upcoming game.
