Gustaf Lagerbielke, born in Stockholm on 10 April 2000 (age 26), is a Sweden international central defender with SC Braga. A commanding 6ft 3in (1.91m), he wears the number 4 shirt and has a current market value of around £4.5m, according to Transfermarkt.
His early senior career in Sweden included a productive 2022 league season at Degerfors IF, where he scored three goals in 14 appearances. He later moved on to IF Elfsborg, and it was from there that Celtic signed him in August 2023 for around £3m.
Lagerbielke’s Celtic spell was not a long one, but it did bring him a Scottish Cup winner’s medal. He left in July 2025, joining SC Braga for around £2m, a move that gave him a fresh start rather than a lengthy Parkhead chapter.
At Braga, he remains part of the first-team picture in 2026–27. He has made 17 appearances across all competitions, including 14 in the Europa League and two in Conference League qualifying, as well as one Liga Portugal appearance. He has also been involved with Sweden, making four World Cup appearances and six in European World Cup qualifying, scoring once in the latter.
His career so far has run from Sweden to Celtic and then Portugal, with international football now part of the same pattern. For Celtic, his time was brief but tangible: one transfer in, one transfer out, and one Scottish Cup.
