Joe Hart has left one Celtic fan in happy floods of tears by meeting with him prior to Sunday's match with Aberdeen.
A video uploaded to TikTok shows one young Hoops fans unable to contain his emotions as he came face-to-face with his Parkhead hero outside the club's Lennoxtown training centre. Hart tried to comfort the youngster by telling him he did not have to be upset and that they would meet again some day.
He then proceeded to sign a few items before driving off but it was a great moment for the Celtic fan, with his mum uploading the footage to social media. It has since racked up plenty of shares and views, with more than 724k over the last 24 hours on Twitter. The youngster's mum, Charlene, wrote: “When your son gets to meet his hero. Tears all round. This is what it is all about.”
