Larsson wants to become Celtic manager

The 38-year-old is expected to snub an elite coaching course in Sweden to take his badges at Largs under the SFA’s umbrella.

Larsson scored 242 goals in his 315 appearences during his seven year long stay with Celtic.

He said: “I talk a lot with Celtic but nothing is happening at the moment.

“Hopefully, something will come up in the future but we’ll just have to wait and see.

“Everyone knows what my feelings are for the club.

“I have gained a lot of experience over the years and feel I’m on the right track to be a coach. But studying in the Swedish FA system doesn’t interest me. Why should I learn everything, from training the boys team to treating injuries?

“I’d much rather get down to studying real coaching methods.

“I will go Scotland sooner or later.That’s my plan.

“And if I should become a coach, my ambition is to be the best I can possibly be.

“That means I will have to leave Sweden and I’m ready to do it.”
