Larsson joins Red Devils training

Former Sweden striker Henrik Larsson has trained with Manchester United for the first time.

Larsson, 35, flew in to England on Saturday and then travelled with the squad to watch United lose to West Ham.

He has sealed a two-and-a-half month loan deal from Helsingborgs, which kicks in on New Year’s Day when he could make his debut against Newcastle.

Larsson will spend this week training in Manchester before going back to Sweden to celebrate Christmas with his family.
