Former Premier League star and Irish International, Kevin Kilbane was reminded of his younger days on social media when someone posted a picture of the player as a child.
The image of the former Everton. Sunderland and Hull player was in his school days during a tournament which he won.
The St Gregory’s class from Preston wore Hoops to the tournament, but Kevin took it a step further and actually wore his Celtic jersey to all his games, the Irishman international revealed.
Brilliant pic. I used to wear my @CelticFC jersey playing for my school team.. @glastolucs @PMDean10 https://t.co/XkBRBck6tZ

Kevin started off from humble beginnings and was capped 111 times for Ireland before he hung up his boots.
The Celtic fan spent his whole career in England before hanging his boots up in 2012.
Like many of the Irish bhoys, they were all linked with Celtic at some point in their career. Some do get here at some point, like Robbie Keane and even Damian Duff as a coach; Shane Duffy is currently playing for his bhoy hood heroes.
