“” I have a dialogue with our coach (Brendan Rodgers) and the club. Both my and the other högerbackens (Cristian Gamboa) contract runs out. Celtic are looking for a new right back, I have no problem whatsoever with. They have to fix.”
“– Then we will see how my situation will be, if I will stay or go elsewhere.”
“What is your sense what Rodgers and Celtic want with you?”
” We have a good dialogue and I know what he wants. It is still a few months left and a few weeks on this window. First and foremost, we get to see what they do in this transfer window”, says Mikael Lustig to Sportbladet.”
“– Not very much. It was blown up a little bit when I was out and met Sebbe (Larsson) after they had won gold and all of a sudden, it was clear that I would for the team…haha.”
“– Celtic have not received any request yet and I have not heard anything concrete. Right now it is full focus on Celtic that applies to me. “
“Moving to Sweden”
“Nag, Sebastian Larsson and Granqvist on you to come home to allsvenskan?”
“– Hehe, yes, both have had a good name when they come home. The christmas tree took up the HIF to the top flight and Seb won a national CHAMPIONSHIP. Life games for them. Any time will we move back to Sweden. But if it is summer or if another few years, we do not know. “
“Mikael Lustig, his wife Josephine and two daughters, Lucia and Lexie has a house in Västerås and it is where the family settle when they move home to Sweden.”
“If it does not get an extension with Celtic, you have many options then?”
” Yes. Even if I become older so I can get another role in the many teams looking for a more experienced player who can play in several different positions. There are many clubs who can think for themselves have a gamma Lustig in the team, haha. “
“– It is, of course, I watch and listen to various options. It will need to do in this industry. We sit down in the family and talk about what we want to do. We thrive in Glasgow and we would stay here so we know that we have it good.”
“– We know what you really want to. But it would be foolish of me to put all the cards on the table when I don’t know what will happen. “

“the Rangers are back in the top is reflected not only in the table. When the Swedish landslagbacken put anything out on Instagram hails the comments from their own fans and opponents.”
“– There are two very big clubs with a lot of fans. It’s nothing new.”
“it Is hard to deal with all the harsh words?”
” I know when I’ve been good or bad. It’s not often I sit and scroll through all the comments. I had thought it was tedious so I had made my Instagram private, and started to block people. No, there is no problem.”
“One of the three clear the stadium for Celtic’s young striker Timothy Weah, 18. The father named George, had a young Mikael Lustig as a supporter, and was named the world’s best player in 1995.”

“Ought to have stepped directly”
“Umeåsonen played two matches in the day after having been away for a couple of weeks after a nasty concussion against Salzburg in the Europa League on the 13th december.”
“Despite the tough bang to the head played Lustig on for several minutes before he was replaced.”
“do you Regret that you played on?”
“– Right there and then I felt clear in the head. I had full control of the match and what had happened. After a while started vision disappoint a bit. Then I started to feel bad after the match. After the club was extremely careful with me. I did some testing and could really have been played in the past, but Celtic didn’t want to take any risks.”
” It was a good bang, and so in hindsight I would perhaps have changed with time.”
