Hammarby boss Kim Hellberg insists Victor Eriksson is not for sale amid reports of transfer interest from Celtic.
The Parkhead club reportedly sent head of football operations Paul Tisdale to watch the central defender in European action on Thursday evening.
Eriksson eventually scored a 119th-minute winner for Hammarby, as they defeated Sporting Charleroi in Europa Conference League qualifying.
"He's not for sale," said Hellberg post-match [RecordSport].

"He has played every minute of these last four games. It is a very big moment for me too.
"I have worked with him for four years in Varnamo, in Hammarby now. I have seen how hard he has worked, and developed as a person and a player. I am so, so proud of him."
These comments match up with what Brendan Rodgers said earlier today.
Indeed, the Parkhead boss admitted that, after the arrival of Jahmai Simpson-Pusey, Celtic likely won't make any more additions at the heart of defence this summer.
He said: "Adding him to our group makes us stronger in that department.
"So yeah, there are lots of links with various players, but yeah, I would see him being our… I say last defender, last central defender."
