Celtic star forced to flee after being caught up in Orange Walk

Celtic hero Jota was forced to flee after getting caught up in an Orange Walk. The Portuguese star was taking selfies with Hoops supporters outside Glasgow's luxury Blythswood Hotel on Sunday afternoon. However, his companions shouted at him to dash into a vehicle as the parade approached, reports the Daily Record. One supporter said: "We were actually outside the hotel as we wanted to get glimpse of Tom Holland who was staying there during Spider-Man filming. "Then all of a sudden Jota just strolled out. "He was happily chatting to us and doing selfies. "My friend asked if he'd seen Tom but he said he hadn't but had seen his fiancée Zendaya. "The march was getting louder and closer so his pals were getting very flustered telling him that he had to go. "He didn't seem too bothered though and kept doing pictures but the people he was with started shouting that he had to get away. "They then ushered him into a vehicle which sped off." Jota (Image: Getty Images) Jota, 26, is currently sidelined through injury so wasn't alongside his Celtic teammates as they geared up for their season opener against St Mirren which they subsequently won 1-0. The procession commenced at Blyswood Square at 3pm with hundreds of participants taking part. Holland, 29, is appearing in Spider-Man: Brand New Day which began shooting in Glasgow on Friday. Holland was spotted on Sunday filming an action sequence in costume before addressing a crowd of approximately 100 people. Vast areas of the city centre have been cordoned off for production and there have been alerts of extensive disruption.
