The successful start of his career made him an interest for Italian Serie A club Bologna who wanted him to transfer to the club, however the Italian Football Federation introduced a ban on all foreign players and Eriksson had to remain in Malmö even though all contracts were signed.
Competition in the starting line-up was though back in Malmö and Eriksson soon saw himself replaced by Bo Larsson among others.
He also started to pick up habits and stopped training properly which made him unfit to play for the team.
However, Eriksson never managed to get his health or career back on track and died 42 years of age in 1984.
