AS a youngster, Emil Forsberg would watch legendary Swedish striker Henrik Larsson banging in the goals at Celtic Park, and now the RB Leipzig man wants to follow in the footsteps of one of his childhood heroes by finding the net in Glasgow next Tuesday.
A love of Larsson though isn’t the only think linking Forsberg, who has been capped 76 times for Sweden, with Celtic. He is also friends with Mikael Lustig, who enjoyed seven successful years at the club before moving onto Gent in 2019.
He is hoping though that RB Leipzig can sicken both of his friends with Celtic connections when they travel to Scotland next week, and if he can find the net, all the better.
