How much would you pay for a signed Larsson shirt? Celtic are now selling them

In conjunction with official Henrik Larsson autobiography, Celtic have launched an official collection ahead of Christmas – which includes signed prints and a signed and framed Larsson Celtic shirt.

The limited edition prints capture the affectionately-named 'King of Kings' at various points in his career – including his iconic tongue-out celebration after scoring in the 6-2 derby of 2000, and during the 2003 UEFA Cup Final – and cost £175 each.

If you fancy a signed Henrik shirt, on the other hand, you can pick up one of this season's home shirts with 'Larsson 7' printed on alongside the player's autograph for £500.

"Showcase your love for the King of Kings with this Henrik Larsson Signed Framed Shirt," reads a line on the official Celtic Store website. "This will make a great addition to any fan cave or home office."

Larsson's legacy at Celtic, of course, speaks for itself. Besides Jimmy Johnstone, the Swede is considered by many to be the best players to ever play for the Parkhead club, and for many fans who grew up in the '90s, Larsson still boasts hero status.

In a recent conversation with Liverpool club media, Scotland captain Andy Robertson echoed that sentiment while naming his inspirations.

He said: "I think when I was really young, probably Henrik Larsson. He was the hero in Scotland, but as my career started moving on it was quite evident that I wasn't going to be a goal-scorer, so I had to shift my inspirations."
