Celtic Lisbon Lions legend Jim Craig has publicly revealed that he has been diagnosed with Alzheimer’s disease. Multiple outlets report that the former defender, part of Celtic’s celebrated 1967 European Cup-winning squad, is living with the condition. The Daily Record says Craig has been living with Alzheimer’s for the past four years, while other coverage focuses on his decision to open up about the diagnosis. The reports also note continuing public debate about links between football and dementia, with Craig’s disclosure adding to broader concerns around the long-term health of former players. Craig’s announcement brings attention to Alzheimer’s as he shares information about his current health, rather than any specific treatment details or circumstances of diagnosis. Across the sources, there is agreement that he is confirmed to have Alzheimer’s and that he is speaking out publicly now, reflecting both personal disclosure and a wider focus on research and awareness around neurodegenerative conditions in sport.
