How James Forrest can become Celtic's most decorated player of all-time as historic milestone looms

Celtic fans have been treated to a hugely talented array of footballing legends who have famously pulled on the green and white hoops at Parkhead.

From the club’s first-ever manager Willie Maley to the Lisbon Lions and Martin O’Neill’s treble-winning heroes to Brendan Rodgers’ invincible stars, the list is endless.

As the current crop of Celtic players chase down a historic NINTH domestic treble, league title glory would move them equal on 55 with Old Firm rivals Rangers. While the club’s trophy cabinets are stacked from years of success both in and outside the Scottish Premiership, who have been the most successful players over the years?

Modern day stalwarts James Forrest and Callum McGregor are both serial winners when it comes to lifting silverware and have now joined some iconic figures of the club’s rich history. And the former is closing in on a historic moment if a double can be clinched over the coming weeks - with the League Cup already safely locked away.
