Son of Henrik Larsson attacked by masked Helsingborgs fans

The son of former Celtic, Barcelona and Manchester United striker Henrik Larsson has been assaulted by masked Helsingborgs fans.

Jordan Larsson after the five-time Swedish champions were relegated from the top flight.

Larsson, who was not aware his son had been confronted, says he will "not walk alone" in his hometown now and plans to send Jordan away on holiday.

"I didn't see that they attacked Jordan but if I had, I would have gone in there towards him. I was not going to run from there," he said. "If they turn on me, they turn on me. I had been beaten."

If any hooligans come to his house, he added he "has many dogs at home".
