    New Celtic signing Mohamed Bangura has been tipped to be as big a hit at Celtic as Henrik Larsson, having idolised the player in his formative years.

    Bangura completed his transfer to Parkhead, signing a four-year contract which will see him move to Glasgow from Swedish club AIK.

    His agent, Patrick Mork, now believes the 22-year-old has everything to become a ‘legend like Larsson’ at Celtic, saying there are a striking amount of similarities between the pair.

    “Growing up his idol was Henrik,” Mork told STV. “Since the first moment I saw him, I thought ‘This is the next Larsson’.

    “He is so similar as a player to Henrik. He even had dreadlocks but unfortunately he had them taken out in April. But he tells me he is going to let his dreadlocks grow again.

    “He is perfect for Celtic. He will be a legend like Henrik Larsson. They have the same style of play and they both play with extremely big hearts. Both have the same work ethic but also the flair and individual skills.

    Celtic boss Neil Lennon revealed on Tuesday that the club have been monitoring the progress of the Sierra Leone international striker for over a year and Mork says the Glasgow club have high hopes for Bangura.

    “I watched him play with Celtic’s chief scout John Park on Sunday and he said to me ‘Our fans will love this player’,” said Mork.


    HIs agents annoying me already :56:

    Didn't Evander Sno say something similar about following in the foot steps of Henrik Larsson when he signed from Feyenoord lol.

    I'm not picky.
    Wonder how Bangura and Diawara will get on as it looks like we're set to sign Diawara as well.

    I said, I think it was in the Rumours thread about Bangura, that I wonder if it was Larsson that recommended Bangura to us and it would seem that I was right :icon_mrgreen:

    Welcome to the club and I hope he can help bang the goals in. Pun meant even though it's an obvious yet bad one :56:

    Good to see this has gone through. :50: Also nice to see us in competition with an EPL team for a player and actually getting the guy, I know this will be the exception rather than the usual but good stuff all the same.

    Good to have a striker in, I suppose. But Bangura is short, so solves nothing. We'll still get shut down by overly defensive teams.
