    Nope. Did you?
    But he's had 1 good season, maybe 2 at a push his entire career, has never scored 20 in a season, was literally chased out of helsingborg and has regularly struggled to score goals in a league were Mo Bangura was considered a top talent

    Not overly, maybe only about 10 times I’ve seen him play between that and Sweden, boys a good player. Especially on a bosman. Spartak were talking £10m plus for him, he wouldn’t be worth it then. Far better in a supporting role for me than as an out and out striker as well. Can play both wings.

    His career stats would say otherwise and given his surname and impact his dad made here and the comparisons and expectations it would draw as unfair as they may be, for me make it a no go.

    Can't judge him on stats.

    Started his pro career aged 16 and has played pretty much every position along the front line.

    Too much about stats these days I've watched him with my own eyeballs a dozen or so times and he is a good footballer who I think would do well here.

    What, his career stats make him look better as an out and out striker?

    Your taking his career stats as if he has to hit ground running as soon as he turned pro I’ve watched highlights of his career he’s was just coming through in Sweden and is not the reason why Helsingborg a got relegated to say he was chased out is disrespectful secondly he had a cracking spell in Holland hence why Spartak paid the money for him he then went on to have great spells at Spartak only reason he has not had contract renewed is the situation between russia and eu pretty good finisher can hit dead ball and like to come in from wing

    50 goals in last 5 seasons, has averaged 10 goals a season since he turned 20. 25 of which have came in poorer league than SPFL.
    He was literally chased out of helsingborg, fans chased him and attacked him on the pitch.
    Cracking spell in Holland?? 4 goals?? Wow!!!

    Made his debut for Sweden aged 20, has 7 caps in 5 years and a total of 330 minutes and 1 goal.

    Nowhere near good enough.

    There is absolutely * all in this rumour other than his surname anyway.

    Bcoz my opinion doesnt match you're im a hun?
    Ignore the last name. If it was anyone else everyone would agree that his stats, and particularly his goal return aren't good enough.
    His surname would make it even worse coming here and being compared to Henrik is impossible for any striker but 1 who's bang average would ruin him.

    Sweden have given him a grand total of 7 caps and a total of 330 minutes in 5 years. Are all there managers huns too?

    People can have different opinions from you mate without being a hun. Maybe you should grow up a bit

    I'd say his stats are far better than that of players that have come before him and ended up doing reasonably well for Celtic. Especially recently under Ange.

    No right minded Celtic fan in this day an age would ever expect Jordan to be anywhere near as great as his dad. Not a chance.

    But he would be an upgrade on RW to replace Forrest and help rotate with Abada and I've have every confidence that if he signed (obviously he wont) he'd achieve a good bit of success out on the right and be in amongst the goal involvements.

    50 goals in 5 seasons for a 3rd choice striker/winger is actually good. What you expecting? We sign someone whos banged in 100 goals in 5 seasons?

    Larsson is the perfect person to bring in.

    1- he's on a free contract which means we can put transfer funds towards a CB and a DM.
    2- he knows and loves the club
    3- He can play across any of the front 3 positions, which we need.
    4- he's actually came into a bit of form over the last couple of seasons.
    5- he's only 25. He would still be able to improve and Ange will definitely be able to work with him.
    6- his name on the back of strips will be worth it for the club from a strictly financial point of view.

    Is he going to turn out like his dad? Of course he isn't. His dad was one of the best players on the planet in the early 2000s. Of course he's not at that level. However, is he good enough to come and play back up to Giakoumakis and Kyogo, while being able to play some games from the wing and rest the likes of Jota/Abada? Absolutely. We need someone who can play across the front 3. I wanted Solbakken but Larsson is free, he loves the club and he would come here to try and make his mark. Whether the club is interested or not? That's a different question but it's a good deal for all parties.

    I'm 99% certain the club aren't interested. Can't believe I'm wasting so much time talking about this stupid rumour that is based solely on his last name.
    He ain't coming move on
