ENGLISH clubs have been handed the chance to fall Crazy in Love with Danish star Ryan Johnson Laursen – after the defender revealed he is Beyonce’s cousin.
Former Denmark Under-21 left-back Laursen has played for top-flight clubs Esbjerg and Odense BK.

However the 30-year-old will become a free agent at the weekend when his contract with Sonderjyske runs out.
Laursen was born in Los Angeles, and only discovered recently he is related to former Destiny’s Child superstar Beyonce, 41.
He told Danish magazine Se og Hor: “It might sound far-fetched, but Beyonce is my great-grandfather’s brother’s granddaughter.
“So she is my mother’s grand-cousin and my great-grand cousin.
“When my great-grandfather died we lost contact.
“But my mother is still connected to their side of the family on Facebook, without having direct contact with Beyonce.
“Sadly I’ve never met her.
“It’s crazy, but I have never got any concert tickets or anything from her.”

Laursen now hopes to land an offer from a new club in 2023.
He added: “I don’t yet have anything in place, but I’ll enjoy the Christmas break with peace of mind.
“Then I will look at what happens once we reach the other side of New Year.”
