Icons of Football
Henrik Larsson
Season 3 Episode 1 of 6
A profile of former Celtic, Barcelona and Sweden striker Henrik Larsson, who reflects on his upbringing in the city of Helsingborg and early promise at Högaborg and Helsingborgs, and his difficult years at Feyenoord, where game time and confidence wavered. The programme charts his transformation at Celtic, where he became the defining player of an era, before his story as a player culminated in Spain, where he joined Barcelona and played a decisive role in their 2006 Champions League triumph. With contributions by Martin O'Neill, Chris Sutton, Johan Mjällby, Paul Lambert and Regi Blinker
