England football legend probed in tell-all doc exposing scandals off the pitch and high-profile love life
FORMER England footie boss Sven-Göran Eriksson’s love life with Ulrika Jonsson is to feature in a new documentary about him.
Swede Sven, 75, was in charge of the Three Lions from 2001 to 2006.
His long career in the game will be chronicled in a show for global streamer Prime Video.
But it is also set to focus on his colourful private life and include testimony from Sun columnist Ulrika, 56.
Fellow Swede Ulrika became romantically involved with Sven in 2002 when he had been in a relationship with Italian lawyer Nancy Dell’Olio, now 62.
Sven and Nancy were later reunited, but he then had a fling with Football Association secretary Faria Alam, 57, and they split in 2007.

A TV insider said: “This is likely to be an in-depth profile as Prime Video have a reputation for delivering major sporting documentaries.”
They aired the Arsenal documentary, All or Nothing, That Peter Crouch Film and a trio of docs by Rio Ferdinand.
The Sven documentary will be made for them by production company Whisper, who also made the documentary, All Roads Lead Down Under looking at the build up to the Fifa Women’s World Cup this year.
Sven Goran Eriksson has raised concerns over his health earlier this year after announcing he was stepping down as sporting director of Karlstad Fotboll in Sweden.
