John Hewitt reflects on his career at Celtic and Aberdeen

John Hewitt, a notable figure in Scottish football, transitioned from Aberdeen to Celtic in August 1989 for £250,000. He initially gained fame at Aberdeen, scoring the decisive goal in the 1983 European Cup Winners Cup final against Real Madrid. Despite early optimism at Celtic, Hewitt struggled with injuries and playing time, ultimately making only 21 appearances without scoring. After a loan at Middlesbrough, he joined St Mirren in 1992. While he remains a celebrated player for Aberdeen, his time at Celtic lacks the same recognition.
