Former England boss Sven Goran Eriksson has raised concerns regarding his health this week.

The veteran Swede stated that he is stepping down as sporting director of Karlstad Fotboll.

Former Manchester City manager Eriksen, who stopped managing in 2019 after a glittering and wide ranging career around the world, had been in charge at Karlstad since 2021.

"I have chosen to limit my public assignments for the time being, due to health problems which are under investigation," he wrote on the club's website.

"Now I will focus on health, family and limited assignments for Karlstad Fotboll among others.

I thank you for all the support from friends and football contacts, and ask you to respect my decision and my privacy."
