Earlier this year, Eriksson sadly announced his diagnosis of terminal cancer, which gave him around a year left to live. He has toured a number of his former clubs in recent months, receiving a particularly warm welcome at Liverpool’s home Anfield.

As reported by La Lazio Siamo Noi, Lazio invited Eriksson to the Stadio Olimpico for their Serie A match against Sassuolo on 26th May, giving the fans the chance to show their appreciation for the former coach.

He last visited the Biancocelesti back in March 2023 for the Derby della Capitale, prior to his painful announcement.
