Celtic fans will love this top-class gesture from Joe Hart as a video has emerged of him handing his match-worn shirt to a young fan.

The Bhoys managed to keep up their solid run of form on Wednesday evening as they recorded a comfortable 2-0 victory at home to St Mirren which saw them maintain their three-point gap at the top of the table.

Is Hart Celtic's best ever keeper?

Yes!

Yes!

No!

No!

However, there was an even more joyous moment than picking up three points and it came after the full-time whistle when a young fan managed to get find their way onto the pitch and reach Hart, before asking him for his shirt.

Hart, who had just kept his 21st clean sheet of the season, was seemingly more than happy to oblige and hand the youngster his top, which was greeted by a cheer of support by those still inside Celtic Park.

TIF Thoughts on Hart…

After failing to become anything more than a backup keeper at his former club Tottenham Hotspur and not been a regular at any of his previous three clubs, Ange Postecoglou took a gamble that Hart was still a good enough keeper and he’s certainly repaid that faith with Hart currently boasting the most clean sheets and is only averaging 0.54 goals conceded per 90 minutes (FBRef).

What Hart did to that young fan is something that took seconds and may not have meant that much to the shot-stopper, however, it will last a lifetime for that fan and also endear him even more to the Celtic fanbase showing how much he cares about them as he could’ve easily just ignored the youngster and let the stewards take him away.
