Celtic star Sead Haksabanovic had a fanboy moment recently when he met the club’s legendary striker, Henrik Larsson.
The Swedish winger, who represents Montenegro, couldn’t contain his excitement as he posted a photo of the encounter on his Instagram story, captioning it “with the king himself.”
Meeting a club legend like Larsson holds a special significance for any Celtic player, as the Swedish striker is regarded as one of the greatest players in the club’s history. Larsson’s incredible goal-scoring record and immense influence during his time at Celtic have made him an icon among the fans.
Haksabanovic, who joined Celtic in 2022, has been making strides in establishing himself at the club, but has been unable to nail down a starting role.
Getting the opportunity to meet Larsson, whom he likely admired growing up, must have been a surreal experience for the talent.
The photo posted on Haksabanovic’s Instagram story captured the two players sharing a moment, and it’s evident from the caption that he holds Larsson in high regard. The admiration for Larsson extends beyond just Celtic fans, as the Swedish striker’s impact and legacy have left an indelible mark on the football world.
