Gustaf Lagerbielke, born in Stockholm on 10 April 2000 (age 26), is a tall Swedish centre-half, standing 6ft 3in (1.91m). His early senior career included a productive 2022 league season with Degerfors IF, where he scored three times in 14 appearances before moving on to IF Elfsborg.
Celtic signed him from Elfsborg in August 2023 for around £3m. His time in Glasgow was not long, but it did bring a Scottish Cup win, which is not a bad line to have on the CV even if the spell itself never quite settled into something larger.
He left Celtic for SC Braga in July 2025 for around £2m. At Braga he wears the No 4 shirt and remains a regular first-team presence in 2026-27, with 18 appearances across all competitions, including Europa League and Conference League qualifying football.
Lagerbielke has also stayed involved with Sweden, making four World Cup appearances and six in European World Cup qualifying, scoring once. His current market value is around £4.5m, according to Transfermarkt.
His career so far has taken him from Sweden to Celtic and then on to Portugal, with Braga now the club giving him regular football at a decent level.
