Bengt Ulf Sebastian Larsson (born 6 June 1985) is a Swedish professional footballer who plays as a midfielder for Allsvenskan club AIK.
After beginning his career at hometown club IFK Eskilstuna, Larsson was signed by Arsenal. He made three league appearances for the Gunners, before joining Birmingham City, initially on loan for the 2006–07 season, before a permanent transfer in the summer of 2007.

He joined Sunderland on 1 July 2011 upon the expiry of his contract, after Birmingham suffered relegation. Larsson is renowned for being a set-piece specialist.
