James Forrest has committed to Celtic until the summer of 2026 with a one-year contract extension, the club confirmed.
The winger’s position as one of the Hoops’ all-time greats is further cemented by the new contract, which is evidence of his ongoing importance to the team.
Ever since his 2010 first-team debut, Forrest has been a vital component of Celtic’s success. The 32-year-old has made more than 500 appearances, given more than 100 assists, and scored more than 100 goals. He is now the second most decorated player in the club’s history thanks to his efforts, which were crucial in helping them win an amazing 24 championships.
Last season, Forrest received a testimonial match in recognition of his devotion and hard work, a unique distinction that symbolises his outstanding contribution to the team. Forrest is now set to wrap up his career at Celtic with this contract, which is appropriate for a man who has dedicated so much of himself to the green and white outfit.
Forrest’s contract extension is a reward for his leadership and expertise inside the team, in addition to his reliability on the field. Forrest’s influence on and off the pitch continues to be crucial as Celtic pursues both local and European success.
It is uncommon in contemporary football to witness a one-club player like Forrest dedicate his entire career to Celtic, and his tale will inspire future generations.
