Larsson ruled out Celtic switch
Henrik Larsson’s determination to return home to Sweden made Celtic’s audacious attempt to re-sign the Hoops legend a non-starter according to his agent Rob Jansen.
Celtic chief executive Peter Lawwell has admitted trying to tempt the 34-year-old back to Parkhead from Barcelona.
However, Larsson will fulfil his pledge to end his career back in his homeland with Helsingborg.
Jansen told the Daily Record: “It is correct. Peter spoke with myself and Henrik but he was told ’no’ very quickly.
“Once Henrik’s mind is made up it’s very difficult to change it.
“The bottom line is Henrik wants to go back to Sweden to end his career – a decision he made some time ago.
“Was he tempted? I would say it was more a case of him being honoured because Celtic will always have a special place in his heart.
“But he had made his decision by the time Celtic appeared.
“He had already decided to go to Helsingborg and the contract was signed.”
