The club have confirmed his passing.
He was the most prolific goalscorer in the Ibrox side's post-war history, netting 145 times in 163 matches.
"'But frankly they never had a chance! How could they? For they were trying to sign a boy who had supported Rangers since he was no taller than an Ibrox turnstile.' "Domestically, Forrest wasted precious little time in finding his shooting boots for the club he dreamed of one day representing, netting a double in a 3-0 Old Firm victory at Parkhead.
"A five-goal haul arrived for the prolific forward in a league outing against Hamilton Academical in 1965, while he broke the record for the most goals scored by a Rangers player in a League Cup match the following year by netting five times in an emphatic 8-0 victory over Stirling Albion.
