Callum McGregor, born on 14 June 1993 in Scotland, currently operates primarily as a central defensive midfielder for Celtic Football Club. Standing at 5 ft 10 in tall (1.78m) and weighing 11st 9 lb (74kg), McGregor dons the number 42 jersey for 'The Hoops'.
His market value is estimated to be around £6.4m, according to Transfermarkt. His contract with Celtic runs until 31 May 2028, translating to about 3 years and 6 months from now.
McGregor joined Celtic in the Scottish Premiership back in July 2013. He successfully established himself as a consistent performer for the club, and can be credited for the club's successful string of seasons in the earlier part of the 2010s. He made quite a remarkable number of appearances every season, and consistently managed to notch a few goals each term too. The 2024 - 2025 season marks his twelfth consecutive year at the Parkhead, during which he has already made 13 appearances and scored six goals.
McGregor spent a season loaned out to Notts County in the English League Two in August 2013. He made 37 appearances for the Magpies, impressively netting 12 goals for the English side. After his successful loan spell, he returned to Celtic in July 2014 and subsequently became an integral part of the club's first-team setup. Since then, he has maintained his prolific form, producing a steady stream of goals and appearances each season.
Beyond his contributions in the domestic league, McGregor also featured prominently in Celtic’s run in the Champions League in the 2023-2024 season, as well as the subsequent 2024-2025 season, making a total of twelve starts. He also appeared in the League Cup for Celtic in the 2024-2025 season where he made three starts.
