Gustaf Lagerbijk is rapidly rebuilding his reputation after leaving Celtic, being praised for the consistency and authority of his performances in Portugal.

according to gameThe Swedish centre-back is on track to reach 40 appearances in his first season at Braga, underlining how important he has become to his current team. The report describes him as a “royal protector”, highlighting the level of status he has reached since then moving on from celtic.

Lagerbilke arrived in Portugal after stints at Celtic and FC Twente. While his time in Scotland offered exposure at a major European club, the move south gave him regular minutes which helped stabilize his development.

This season he has emerged as one of the most used players in the team. He operates as a central man in a three-man defense and has quickly become a pillar of the team’s structure. His calm delivery – both short and long – and his defensive solidity have made him one of the manager’s most reliable options.

The 25-year-old has also provided decisive moments since leaving Celtic. Earlier in the campaign he played a key role in the win over Sporting. In stoppage time, he was fouled inside the penalty area, allowing Rodrigo Zalazar to convert the winning spot-kick.

Beyond defensive work, Lagerbilke remains a threat from set pieces. His aerial ability and physical presence make him a regular target during corners and wide free-kicks.

Swedish perspective on their development

Former Braga striker Stefan Schwarz Eskilsson, who follows the Portuguese league closely, recently watched Lagerbijk in action and came away impressed.

“I watched some of their games because I also watch Braga matches,” he said. “I was also at the stadium for the derby against Vitória Guimaraes.”

From what he’s seen, the Swedish defender has made clear steps forward since leaving Celtic.

“I saw a solid and steady performance. He’s a great defender who doesn’t make mistakes. He’s very secure in his game.” Eskilson said.

The former striker also highlighted the physical and tactical qualities that define Lagerbilke’s style.

“He adds the physical component – ​​he’s very tall, physical and aggressive. But he reads the game very well. He’s an intelligent player.”

what happens next

Lagerbijk’s consistent performances have also helped him earn a place in the Sweden national team, where competition for centre-back places remains strong.

Eskilstuna believes the defender’s trajectory since leaving Celtic shows the value of playing regularly at a high level. And Lagerbilke himself enjoying life in portugal.

“He has improved compared to last season and is now playing in a better league than the Netherlands and Scotland.” He said.

With 39 appearances already this season, the Swedish defender looks set to keep the momentum going – and his post-Celtic chapter is starting to look like the most stable period of his career so far.

Sporting CP has found an unexpected solution in Luis Guilherme record The youngster’s reporting under Rui Borges has become a revelation since arriving from West Ham United.

The 20-year-old arrived in January as a long-term project. However, its rapid adaptation has already forced its manager to rethink plans.

Rui Borges has publicly praised the Brazilian’s attitude in both training and matches, and is said to be internally impressed by the coaching staff at how quickly he absorbed tactical instructions.

The record describes a player who was “lost” in the Premier League. At West Ham, Guilherme only managed to make five appearances in the first half of the 2025/26 season. Sporting moves forward decisively In January, he added £12m (€14m) to the bonus he received for bringing him to Lisbon and invested a further £2.6m (€3m).

Work ethic attracting attention since West Ham transfer

Since then, Guilherme’s impact has surprised even those who pushed for his signature. After his recent performance against Moreirense, Rui Borges reportedly strengthened his positive assessment of a player who trains at full intensity and regularly stays behind for additional tactical and finishing practice.

In addition, the Brazilian carefully manages his diet and reviews each of his matches at home. The training center has resulted in a level of application where commitment and detail are non-negotiable.

His football education also plays a role. During his six years in the academy of Brazilian side Palmeiras, Guilherme operated as a left-back, box-to-box midfielder and even a false nine in seven-a-side football. As a result, the left-footed player reads the game faster and understands the movements of teammates more easily.

The Record goes further and notes that, stylistically, he has been compared to Rivaldo. It’s no light comparison… yet Sporting believe his personality and maturity justify optimism.

Away from the pitch, he is described as reserved and disciplined. He married his longtime partner, Giovanna, at the age of 19 and continued to follow a structured parenting, having moved from northeastern Brazil to São Paulo at an early age.

A lesson for West Ham?

For West Ham, this development inevitably raises questions. The Hammers signed Guilherme as part of their wider investment in young Brazilian talent. However, the limited minutes underlined how difficult the Premier League transition can be.

Sporting’s willingness to pay £12 million upfront shows they have seen value that others cannot unlock. If their trajectory continues, West Ham may consider whether they moved too quickly or simply failed to provide the right platform.

Either way, Guilherme’s resurgence in Portugal highlights how context and confidence can transform a career in a matter of weeks.

Barcelona have been chasing Norwich City youngster Ajay Tavares for the past few weeks.

Two months ago, Sports Witness First covered several Catalan claims Barcelona’s strong interest in the 16-year-old player.
