Aussie side hope to snare Larsson
AUSSIE outfit Gold Coast United are ready to make a bold bid to lure Celtic legend Henrik Larsson to the A-League.
Head coach Miron Bleiberg has opened talks on signing Larsson on a nine-match guest player deal that would allow him to return to Swedish side Helsingborg for the start of their 2010 season.
United are owned by billionaire Clive Palmer and are preparing to enter the Australian senior set-up for the start of the 2009-10 campaign in August.
If they sign Larsson he would head to Queensland at the end of the Swedish season in November.
