Celtic veteran James Forrest is cherishing each game as his contract approaches its end next summer, which may mark his final season at Parkhead. The 33-year-old winger, who has won 24 major titles with Celtic, is aiming to add to his tally and potentially surpass Bobby Lennox’s club record of 26 trophies. Forrest has struggled with injuries in recent years, but his recent return to regular minutes, primarily as a substitute, has reignited his appreciation for the game.
Reflecting on his time away from the pitch, Forrest acknowledged doubts about his future during his injury spell, which left him uncertain if he’d ever play for Celtic again. Now, he’s relishing every moment, especially after helping secure last season’s league title and Scottish Cup. Although he hasn’t scored this season, Forrest’s focus remains on enjoying the present rather than worrying about what lies beyond this campaign.
Ahead of Forrest in Celtic’s lineup, Nicholas Kuhn has had a standout season on the right wing, filling the gap left by Matt O’Riley. Kuhn has delivered impressive numbers, with three goals and five assists in league play, and an additional three goals and three assists in the League Cup. As Celtic heads into their next cup clash, Kuhn’s contributions continue to provide a valuable boost to the squad.
