The largest single share in the new figures were reportedly tax debts in the UK, owed to HMRC, totalling £7.25m. Sven-Goran Eriksson's memorabilia from his football management career has gone up for sale after he died with a reported £3.7million in debt.
Some of his blazers from when he managed England are up for sale on the auction website. This medal, from when he won the Coppa Italia as Lazio manager in 2000, is also up for sale. He admitted on several occasions that he had poor control over his finances despite his illustrious career in football, reportedly telling Expressen in 2017: 'I have no idea how much money I have and where it is.'.
