Who is Klas Ingesson?

Klas Ingesson is a former Swedish footballer. As a member of the national team he played in 57 games, including 1990 FIFA World Cup and 1994 FIFA World Cup, as well as the 1992 European Championship.

On 14 May 2009 Ingesson announced that he had been diagnosed with multiple myeloma for which he is currently being treated. The treatment is said to be going "in the right direction". Ingesson fully recovered since then and, on December 2010, made a football comeback by accepting an offer to guide the Elfsborg Under-21 youth team. On 8 January 2013, Ingesson revealed that the myeloma had returned, and that he would have a stem cell transplant, as the two previous autologous had been unsuccessful.
