Sebastian Larsson joins AIK Fotboll from Hull City

Hull City midfielder Sebastian Larsson has joined Swedish club AIK Fotboll on a two-year deal.

The 33-year-old Sweden international turned down a new deal with the Tigers to return to his home country after 17 years in England.

Larsson, who will represent his nation at the World Cup in Russia, joined Arsenal's youth ranks in 2001 before going on to play for Birmingham City, Sunderland and Hull.

"We would like to wish Seb well for the future, including at the forthcoming World Cup, and thank him for his efforts in black and amber," the Championship club said in a statement.

Hull have already seen key figures Allan McGregor, Michael Dawson and Abel Hernandez turn down the chance to stay in East Yorkshire since the end of the season.
