Sead Haksabanovic reveals how Celtic have fulfilled childhood Champions League dream after Larsson's seal of approval

Sead Haksabanovic used to run around as a kid pretending to be Ronaldinho in the Champions League. Now the Celtic star is savouring the opportunity of sampling the big time for real as part of the Parkhead Euro bid.
