Callum McGregor, born on the 14th of June 1993 (now 31) in Scotland, is a diligent midfield player known for his sturdy defensive tactics for Celtic FC. He stands at approximately 5ft 10in in height (1.78m) and tips the scales at a fit 11st 9lb (around 74kg). In Celtic's line-up, one can find McGregor donning the number 42 jersey.
McGregor's esteem in the football market shines through with an approximate market value of £5.5m, according to Transfermarkt. He doesn't seem to be leaving the Celtic turf anytime soon, with his contract currently left with three more years and two months to run, taking him into the summer of 2028.
It was in the warm July of 2013 when McGregor joined Celtic in the Scottish Premiership. His years at Celtic, starting from the 2014-2015 season, were marked by a steady and consistent performance. He made anywhere between 18 to 37 first-team appearances throughout the years and managed to tuck away a commendable number of goals—ranging from a couple in some seasons to as high as nine in the 2019-2020 season.
Nevertheless, his time at Celtic was not without interruption—a loan period saw him shipped off to Notts County in England's League Two in August 2013. There, in the 2013-2014 season, he made a strong impact, with 37 first-team appearances and 12 goals to his name.
Upon the completion of the loan period in July 2014, McGregor returned to Celtic where he continued to demonstrate a profound willingness to contribute to the team's successes. His performance in the current 2024-2025 season of the Scottish Premiership is a testament to his enduring quality, with 30 first-team appearances and eight goals thus far.
Callum McGregor's worth to Celtic FC extends beyond the Premiership. He has donned the green and white hoop in various competitions, including the Champions League (2023-2024 and 2024-2025), the League Cup (2024-2025), and the Scottish Cup (2024-2025). These events have witnessed his steady presence on the field and goal-scoring prowess, further cementing his importance to the team.
