Greg Taylor, a notable football player, breathed his first on 5 November 1997. Hailing from Scotland, he has made a name for himself in the domain of football as a defender. Known for his expertise as a left back for Celtic, Taylor stands 5ft 8in tall (approx. 1.73m) and carries a weight of 9st 12lb (about 63kg). He is a constant sight on the Celtic field donned in the number 3 jersey, and additionally, he has taken his talents to a national level representing Scotland.

As of now, Taylor's current market value is a respectable €6.5m (approx. £5.5m), based on data provided by Transfermarkt. He is nearing the end of his contract with Celtic, which is set to run out on 30 June 2025, only two months from now.

The journey of Taylor's career has been rather interesting. It all started back in July 2015 when he joined Kilmarnock in the Scottish Premiership. Despite being a newbie during his debut season (2015-2016), Taylor got an opportunity to play one first team league match. His presence became progressively more prominent over the seasons, with 34 matches in 2016-2017, 38 in 2017-2018, 36 in 2018-2019 where he also scored a goal, and a modest two appearances in 2019-2020.

In a rather exciting turn of events in September 2019, Taylor transferred from Kilmarnock to Celtic for an undisclosed fee. Since his shift to Celtic, he has amassed quite a number of appearances on the field. His debut season at Celtic (2019-2020) saw him making 12 competitions, followed by 26 in 2020-2021, 24 in 2021-2022, 31 in 2022-2023 where he scored three goals, 35 in 2023-2024 where he again netted three goals, and in the current season (2024-2025), he's already been seen on the Celtic pitch 28 times.

Taylor hasn’t restricted himself to just league matches either; he has been quite active in other competitions too. We see him in the Champions League 2023-2024 for Celtic with six starts, the League Cup 2024-2025 for Celtic, marking one goal in two starts and two appearances as a substitute, Scottish Cup 2024-2025 for Celtic with three starts, Euro Qualifiers 2022-2024 for Scotland with two starts, and most recently in the Champions League 2024-2025 for Celtic with eight starts.

Looking at the evolution and progress of Greg Taylor, it's clear that he is a commendable player with noteworthy potential and a crucial piece in the Celtic roster.
