Sven-Goran Eriksson

Sven-Goran Eriksson

Have you seen Sven?

Sven-Goran Eriksson is Notts County's director of football. Tell us if you have seen him in Nottingham.

Sven-Goran Eriksson has managed Gothenburg, Benfica, Lazio, Manchester City, Mexico and England. He's now been installed at League Two Notts County.

So what would attract the much sought-after coach to Nottingham?

Lea Walker in 2008

Nottingham is home to lots of ladies

Sven likes the ladies

During his relationship with Italian property lawyer Nancy Dell'Olio, Sven had affairs with former FA secretary Faria Alam and Ulrika Jonsson.

Famously, Nottingham, depending on what you read, has a ratio of women to men of anywhere between 3:1 and 6:1.

However, it's more likely to be 50/50.

One of Nottingham's most famous blondes is former Big Brother contestant Lea Walker.

Is she too much for Sven to handle?

Sven likes to party

Despite being four years away from becoming a pensioner, Sven still gets spotted out partying with 'mystery blondes'.

Paul Smith

New best friend?

So where better to live than in Nottingham, one of the top destinations in England for a night out.

Will Sven be seen throwing shapes in one of Nottingham's nightclubs?

Sven likes to look good

Nottingham is a stylish city.

It's the home of Sir Paul Smith and Nottingham Trent University has a great reputation for fashion design outside of London.

So, the suits are sorted and with Nottingham's many salons the hair will stay immaculate.

Nottingham Contemporary on Weekday Cross

A place to soak up the arts

Sven is a cultured man

Sven has written books, he's been spotted at art shows and is a passionate classical music fan.

He's lived in Florence, London and Rome, where some of the world's most famous art galleries reside.

Later this year our very own 'super' gallery will be open to the public, Nottingham Contemporary.

Will Sven be guest of honour at the opening show?

Finally, Nottinghamshire does of course have a certain Swedish furniture superstore... if he likes that sort of thing.

Have Your Say

Have you seen Sven in Nottingham?

The BBC reserves the right to edit comments submitted.

Clare
I nearly hit Swen when he was walking across the pedestrian crossing when it was on the red man near Weekday Cross. He looked very chilled and was doing very well to ignore everyone shouting Swen at him....
