Larsson back for Swedes

Celtic striker Henrik Larsson has come out of international retirement, according to a report.

The 32-year-old - who has 72 caps to his name - retired from the international scene two years ago but returned temporarily last April to help an injury-hit Sweden side win a Euro 2004 qualifying tie in Hungary.

He then insisted he would not return again although, earlier this month, his agent Rob Jansen said Larsson was close to "a change of heart".

The Celtic frontman, who will leave Parkhead this summer, has scored 24 goals for his country and played in two World Cups and two European Championships.

The report is in Swedish newspaper Helsingborgs Dagblad.
