YOU CELTIC FANS HEARD THAT
Man Utd capture Larsson on loan
Larsson will make his Premiership bow at 35
Manchester United will sign veteran striker Henrik Larsson on a three-month loan deal in January.
The 35-year-old former Celtic striker will leave current club Helsingborg on 1 January and return when the Swedish season starts in March.
Larsson said: "United have been after me before, after the first or second season with Celtic.
"It feels good to come and play for such a big club. I may not start every match, but it feels like a fun thing."
Premiership leaders United are short of options up front, with Ole Gunnar Solskjaer injured and Alan Smith still seeking full fitness.
606 DEBATE:Will the Swedish star help Man Utd regain the title?
That leaves Wayne Rooney and Louis Saha as their only recognised strikers.
Larsson left Barcelona at the end of last season to join hometown club Helsingborg.
He spent two seasons in Spain and played a decisive role in this year's Champions League final when he came on in the second half and set up both goals in the defeat of Arsenal.
The Swede joined Barca in 2004 following a hugely successful seven-year spell at Celtic, where he is widely hailed as one of the best players in the club's history.

NAH HE WANTED TO PLAY FOR AN EVEN BIGGER CLUB

He already played for the biggest club on the planet for 7 years, anything after Celtic is a step down. :laugh:
I see he said: "I may not start every match, but it feels like a fun thing." Bcoz I was wondering why he would go there, ain't like he has anything to prove.
I thought the whole point of going to Helsingborg was to settle down and retire in his home country, Man Utd must have made him feel pretty damn wanted.
I know one thing for certain tho if any Man Utd players ask him in the dressing room who he was cheering on last Wednesday, they won't like the response. :)

This could be a stroke of genius from Fergie.
Good luck Henke!

Great signing by fergie, shame its only for 3 months hopefully they will be able to extend it till the end of the season. I always thought Larsson was good enough for the premiership, glad he will get a chance to prove it with us.

Hopefully he hasn't lost too much, that's my only concern.
