Celtic are set to add another Swedish player to their ranks with Benjamin Nygren set to be confirmed.
It’s expected that Nygren will be announced on July 1, making him the 11th player from Sweden to represent the Hoops.
Over the years, the club has had some incredible talents from the Scandinavian country, most notably Henrik Larsson.
Nygren will be hoping to follow in his footsteps and enjoy a successful career at Celtic Park but as he prepares to embark on a new journey, let’s take a look at the other Swedes to have played for the Bhoys.
