James Forrest
James Forrest is a right winger who attacks space, runs beyond the line, and pins centre-backs for Celtic. Forrest has evolved into a passing winger with press resistance and smart link-ups. He keeps the tempo high. A turning point came when he extended his Celtic contract through 2026, anchoring his role as a steady creator. He became Celtic’s most decorated player and helped secure the Scottish Cup as part of his milestones. James Forrest operates as a playmaking winger, offering short layoffs and through balls to link play for Celtic. He presses high, checks short then spins in behind, and crafts chances for teammates under international duty with Scotland at Euro 2020. At his best, James Forrest drifts into spaces, delivers finishes, and stretches defenses with quick, decisive actions.
