Jordan Larsson to Celtic transfer option explored as Parkhead hero explains biggest challenge facing Henrik's son

Jordan Larsson would face the difficult task of living up to his father Henrik 's legacy at Celtic if he complete a fairytale transfer, insists Peter Grant.

Larsson Jr is set to be available as a free agent as the son of the Parkhead icon leaves Spartak Moscow with his contract ripped up following Russia's invasion of Ukraine. He impressed in the Russian top flight netting an impressive 26 goals his first 62 appearances before returning to Sweden on loan with title challengers AIK.

The free agent can now weigh up his options with loan club AIK appearing to lead the race for a potential swoop, with the 25-year-old starting the last game in the Allsvenskan before his Spartak contract was ripped up. However, a move to the Scottish Premiership champions has caught the imagination of Parkhead supporters given the mark Larsson Sr left on Glasgow's east end.
