Callum McGregor Reveals Next Season Priority

Callum McGregor’s recent interview on Celtic TV ahead of the club’s USA tour has given fans a glimpse into his mindset as the new season approaches. The Celtic captain, known for his leadership and passion, is clearly focused for the season ahead and while the Champions League has the glamour, the Callum makes it clear the priorities.

“Everybody always looks forward to the Champions League. The players, the staff and everyone else at the club are no different to that. It’s an exciting tournament but first and foremost, the league is the priority,” McGregor stated.

McGregor emphasised that while the Champions League is an exciting, the primary goal remains securing the league title. “If you don’t win the league, you don’t get to the Champions League so that will be the main priority. Then as always, as a group of winners, we want to try and win everything that’s on offer for us.”

Winning the league is a reminder of the foundations that have to be built to achieve European aspirations. However, Celtic fans really want to see the club make a better fist of it when it comes to Europe.

McGregor made it clear he takes nothing for granted when it comes to any comPetition. “There’s no arrogance or anything in saying that. I’m sure every other team will be saying the same.”

It remains to be see whether we can make a better account of ourselves in the Champions League with its new format. Celtic will play four home Game and four away against 8 different opposition.

The Scottish champions have become the whipping bhoys over the past decade and something needs to change.
