Lars-Gunnar Carlstrand (born 29 August 1973) is a Swedish football attacking midfielder and striker.
Carlstrand began his career at Västra Frölunda IF, as a trialist for St Johnstone but turned down a contract offer in December 1997 because he couldn't bring his dog to Scotland.
His eventful spell at the Foxes was terminated after a five-game, four goal reserve record; a near breakthrough at Ewood Park when the final whistle frustrated Martin O'Neill's attempt to introduce him as a late substitute; and a training ground broken nose.
He then signed for Norwegian side Strømsgodset IF and returned to Sweden in 1999 to join IF Elfsborg, earning a domestic Cup Winners' Cup medal with the team in 2001.
