Callum McGregor, Scottish through and through, birthed on the 14th June 1993, has carved out a place for himself as an influential central defensive midfielder for the renowned Celtic Football Club. Measuring in at 1.78 metres (5ft 10in) in height and tipping the scales at 74 kilograms (11st 9lb), he's a formidable presence on the pitch adorned in the number 42 jersey.

According to Transfermarkt, McGregor's market value rings in at around £3.8m.

The Celtic lad has shown tenacity and consistent growth as a player since joining the Celtic Premiership in July 2013. His performance improved consistently with every season. Indeed, at Celtic, McGregor made steady progress every season from 2014 to 2026, with first team appearances ranging from 18 to 37 per season, and league goals scored each season hovering around the 2-9 range.

In August 2013, McGregor, eager for more experience, transferred on loan from his spiritual home at Celtic to Notts County in the League Two in England. He made quite an impression in his debut season 2013-2014, logging 37 first-team appearances and scoring a notable 12 goals in league matches.

Leveraging the experience and skillset honed in England, McGregor returned to Celtic in July 2014, no doubt to the cheer of the faithful green and white supporters. From 2014 to 2026 his performance scores reflect a dedicated player consistently present on the pitch, reinforcing the club's midfield, and delivering key goals at critical times.

Furthermore, McGregor has had a commendable run in international leagues. He showed his calibre in the Champions League 2023-2024 for Celtic with six starts; League Cup 2025-2026 for Celtic, scoring one goal in four starts; Champions League Qualifiers 2025-2026 for Celtic with two starts, and Europa League 2025-2026 for Celtic with six starts. Each of these appearances, no doubt, enhanced his standing as a respected footballer and visible asset to Celtic.
