Henrik Larsson has expressed a desire to return to Celtic in a coaching capacity.
The Parkhead legend, 38, is poised to retire from international football with Sweden and could come to Scotland to study for his UEFA badges.
"I talk a lot with Celtic, although nothing is happening at the moment,' said Larsson, who scored 242 goals for Celtic between 1997 and 2004 before joining Barcelona.
"Hopefully, something will come up in the future but we'll just have to wait and see. Everyone knows what my feelings are for the club. I will go to Scotland sooner or later.
"If I should become a coach, my ambition is to be the best I can be. That means I will have to leave Sweden."
The Scottish Football Association programme allows senior professionals with at least five years' experience to skip the introductory stages and begin with the UEFA B licence.
Larsson said: "I have gained a lot of experience over the years and I feel I'm on the right track to become a coach, but studying in the Swedish FA system doesn't interest me.
"Why should I learn everything from training boys to treating injuries? I would much rather get down to studying real coaching methods."
