Henrik Larsson spent Tuesday afternoon in amongst Celtic supporters at the Celtic club shop…
The King of Kings was in Glasgow signing books and meeting fans in the club’s new flagship store on Queen Street.
The Swede, who is still revered by all at the club, was promoting his new book ‘A Legend In Focus’, giving fans the chance to meet their hero.

Hopefully Henrik hangs around for Sunday as Celtic could use his magic touch.
In his time at Celtic, Larsson scored 242 goals going from stopping the ten in 1998 before bowing out as a Scottish Champion. They don’t make many like Henrik these days. Despite his stature, he could jump well above central defenders and a nip of pace to take him beyond many a defender.

The quality that he had in front of goal speaks for itself given the sheer amount of goals that he scored.
Despite the riches that a player of his class could have demanded south of the border, Larsson stayed faithful to Celtic as he and his family were settled. He proved that he was different class in his final match for Barcelona in 2006, when he came on as a substitute in Paris during the Champions League final and got two assists as Barca came from behind to beat Arsenal.
Elsewhere, UEFA shared a clip of Larsson’s renowned composure in front of goal from 2000.

A different story on Sunday – Henrik
When asked by a supporter about the result and performance at Ibrox on Sunday the King of Kings simply said that I would be a different story on Sunday. Let’s hope so Henrik. Another asked him if he had brought his boots with him…
