The Hoops cashed in on the Swedish defender this summer with Celta Vigo in La Liga snapping up the stopper as he moved to clear up the real reasons behind his exit from Scotland.
Carl Starfelt has addressed speculation over his Celtic exit as he expressed his 'surprise' at Brendan Rodgers.
He admits it is a plus that not only does she, but his parents live closer to him now in Lisbon but his decision to leave Parkhead was fuelled by football and that those comments were a 'little exaggerated'. He is forever grateful for his time at the Scottish champions as he looks to be a hit in Spain's top flight in his latest challenge.
"When you leave you get a little sentimental, even though I am convinced that I have come to enjoy myself in Spain. "They presented a good project where they want to invest and push up the table. They've brought in Rafa Benitez as a manager as well, so that felt like a good move to me.
