Born on November 5th, 1997 in Scotland, Greg Taylor, now aged 28, currently furthers his career in Greek side PAOK as a tenacious left-back, standing at a modest 5ft 8in (1.73m) and weighing in at 9st 12lb (63kg). His journey in the beautiful game has been adorned with appearances for the Scottish national team, as well as a notable stint at the green half of Glasgow with the Celts.

His market value, according to Transfermarkt, rests somewhere in the region of £4.5m; a testament to this consistency in the defensive position.

Taylor's earliest professional footsteps were in the Scottish Premiership with Kilmarnock. His initial season in 2015-2016 saw him break into the first team, making a solitary appearance. He quickly embedded himself in the Killie back-line over the next few seasons, featuring regularly and scoring his first goal in the 2018-2019 season.

In September 2019, Taylor bade farewell to Kilmarnock and ventured towards the east end of Glasgow, signing for Celtic for a fee that remains undisclosed to this day. His early Celtic years witnessed a reasonably consistent string of appearances for the Hoops, notching up 12 league matches in his inaugural season.

As the years rolled by, Taylor became a regular feature in the Celtic XI, reaching his highest tally of 35 appearances in the 2023-2024 season, fixing three league goals to his name in the process. Throughout his Celtic tenure, Taylor was part of a strong defensive contingent, regularly thwarting attackers in the Scottish Premiership.

After six seasons of donning the green and white hoops, Taylor embarked on a new journey, swapping Glasgow's east end for Thessaloniki, Greece. In July 2025, he signed for PAOK to compete in the top-flight Greek Super League. Currently, in the 2025-2026 season, Taylor has featured nine times for his new club and even tasted European competition in the Europa League Qualifiers.
