Neil Lennon comments on Celtic winger James Forrest

Celtic boss Neil Lennon has showered praise on winger James Forrest, saying he is ‘priceless’ for the club.

The 28-year-old scored yesterday as Celtic defeated St Mirren 2-0 in the Scottish Premiership clash.

Mohamed Elyounoussi, signed on loan from Premier League club Southampton in the summer transfer window, scored the opening goal for the Bhoys nine minutes after the break.

Forrest marked his new four-year deal with a brilliant performance as well. Lennon thinks the 32-times capped Scotland winger is now worth around £25million after signing his new contract with the club.
