Celtic winger James Forrest has enjoyed a wonderful season at Parkhead.
The Times have suggested that Leicester City will move for the Celtic wide-man, who Brendan Rodgers is keen to link up with again at the King Power Stadium.
However, Forrest says that he has never been tempted to leave Celtic and he wants to make his stay at Parkhead as long as possible.
“Have I ever been tempted to leave?” he said. “No. I think a couple of years ago I had six months left on my contract – that was the closest I came.
“There was uncertainty but I always wanted to stay. Because I’ve come through the club, I understand the pressure, love the big games, I always wanted that. I just want to stay as long as I can.”
Forrest’s form for Celtic this season has been outstanding, with the attacker enjoying his best campaign to date.
The rapid winger has scored prolifically and arguably been Celtic’s biggest attacking threat.
Forrest’s form has helped Celtic lift the Scottish Premiership title once again, and it is hardly surprisingly that he is now attracting admiring glances from the Premier League.
But it seems that Celtic fans have nothing to fear, as Forrest looks set to be pulling on the green and white hoops again next term.
