Here’s the latest I can share based on recent reporting up to 2025–2026.
- Core update: James Forrest has been active with Celtic, with reports in early 2025 noting injury concerns that sidelined him for several weeks during the 2024–25 season, and later coverage focusing on his then-current contract situation and cameo performances for Celtic in domestic cups.[1][5]
- Injury and availability: In March 2025, Celtic publicly indicated Forrest was expected to be out for around six weeks due to a knock sustained in the League Cup Final, which limited his match involvement during that period.[1]
- Scotland recall context: Forrest has discussed his prospects regarding a Scotland recall, indicating he had not given it much thought but would welcome Euros selection if the opportunity arose, reflecting his ongoing role as a veteran who can contribute when fit.[3]
- Career notes and background: Forrest has had a long tenure with Celtic, including significant involvement in cup runs and European matches early in his career, and later discussions around retirement planning as he approached the end of his contract window (public comments in 2025).[4][5]
If you’d like, I can narrow to a specific type of update (e.g., injuries, contract status, Scotland national team considerations) and pull the most current items for that angle. I can also search for live updates from the past few days if you want the very latest headlines.
