Sven-Goran Eriksson has revealed how he fell in love with Mexican dancer, Yaniseth Alcides.

In his autobiography 'My Story', the 65-year-old football manager claimed that he started dating her in 2008, after she squealed "Oh my god its him!" on the street, the Daily Star reported.

The former football player said that he fell for her after she invited him to watch her dance at a bar, where he saw her dancing some kind of salsa and was scantily clad and a real beauty.

He bought a bottle of champagne and as soon as there was a break in the performance, he asked if he could offer her a glass.

Alcides was so excited to see him, as she couldn't believe he had come to see her perform and gave him her number.

Eriksson said that they had soon fallen madly in love, so much so that Alcides five-year-old son has now taken his surname.
