Sweden confirm Sven interest

Lars-Ake Lagrell admits they are interested in getting Eriksson to return to his homeland to replace Lars Lagerback, who has decided to quit.

“He might want to come back to Sweden and end his football career as national manager and is ready to adjust to the Swedish salary level,” Lagrell told Aftonbladet.

“That’s for us to find out and we will try to find out one way or another,” he quipped.

“We don’t have the money to match the salaries that Svennis [Eriksson’s nickname in Sweden] has had in England and Mexico.

“On the other hand Svennis has made his money. It’s not a person who will have to live on social welfare when he ends his career.

“It’s no use sitting down in negotiations and you find out that he is not on the level that we are.”
