Harry Hood: former Celtic legend dies at the age of 74
In a statement the club says he deserves his place in Celtic folklore.
Celtic legend Harry Hood has died at the age of 74.
The striker, who also played for Clyde, Sunderland, Motherwell, Queen of the South and San Antonio Thunder, won 10 major honours at Parkhead between 1969 and 1976 and scored 123 goals.
Celtic stated on Twitter that: "The thoughts and prayers of everyone at the club are with Harry's family and friends at this extremely sad time."
Hood joined Celtic from Clyde in 1969 and went on to win five Scottish League championships, three Scottish Cups and two League Cups.
He has also owned a string of pubs and restaurants in the Glasgow area.
The club added: "Hood deserves his place in Celtic folklore. He wasn't a Lisbon Lion or a Quality Street Kid, but he fitted in perfectly at Celtic.
He had the X-Factor that helped the team win games and in many ways he was the classic Celtic player. His record of 123 goals and 12 major honours stands comparison with the greats.
