Celtic fans still adore me 29 years on from my controversial exit and here is why Jota will be remembered too

Former Celtic striker Jorge Cadete stated that supporters still adore him nearly three decades after his departure from the club. Speaking to Bola Branca, Cadete expressed gratitude that fans continue to reach out regularly despite him only spending a single full season in Glasgow. He also backed current Portuguese winger Jota to achieve legendary status at the club following his recent return to competitive action.

Cadete scored 38 goals in 48 games for Celtic between 1996 and 1997 before leaving for Celta Vigo for £3.5 million following a dispute with owner Fergus McCann. Meanwhile, Jota recently returned from an 18-month absence during Celtic's 2-0 win over Motherwell, though he remains ineligible for the Europa League fixture against Benfica.
