Born on the 16th of November 1998, Anthony Ralston is a Scottish defender known for his appearances as a right back for Celtic. At the height of 5ft 11in (1.82m) and a weight of 12st 3lb (78kg), he is a solid presence on the pitch, in his number 56 jersey. Apart from playing for Celtic, Ralston has also had the honour of representing the Scotland national team.
Ralston's current market value sits around the £1.3 million mark, as per the Transfermarkt.
In July 2015, Ralston was loaned from Celtic to Queen's Park, where he played a notable debut season of ten first team appearances and one goal in league matches. His loan stint ended in January 2016, when he returned to Celtic.
Over the years at Celtic, from 2015 until the ongoing season of 2025-2026, Ralston has made over 100 first team appearances and scored seven goals in league matches. He grew from just a single appearance in the 2015 - 2016 season, to making 28 appearances and scoring four goals in the 2021 - 2022 season.

However, during his tenure with the Celtic squad, Ralston has embarked on loan transfers to Dundee United in March 2018, and later to St Johnstone in September 2019. Yet, he couldn't stay away for long, and faithfully returned to Celtic following the completion of both his loans, where he continued to make significant contributions to the team.
In the current football season of 2025 - 2026, Anthony Ralston has not only maintained consistent appearances for Celtic in league matches, but has also contributed to various tournament games, including the League Cup, the Scottish Cup, and Champions League Qualifiers for Celtic, as well as World Cup Qualifiers Europe for Scotland.
