Greg Taylor, born on the 5th of November 1997 in Scotland, is a robust defender who currently plies his trade as a left-back for Celtic Football Club. Standing at a steady 5ft 8in (1.73m), and weighing in at 9st 12lb (63kg), Taylor commands the number 3 jersey with aplomb. In addition to his club work, Taylor has also donned the jersey for Scotland's national team. His current market value checks in at just about £5.5m, as cited by Transfermarkt with his Celtic contract set to run its course by 30th of June, 2025.

Taylor's professional journey began with Kilmarnock in Scotland's Premiership, come the July of 2015. His initial season saw him earn a single first-team league appearance, however, over the subsequent years his presence on the greens multiplied, culminating in Taylor recording 36 appearances and a single goal in the 2018 - 2019 season.

In September 2019, Taylor crossed over from Kilmarnock to the grandeur of Celtic Football Club under undisclosed terms. It was here, at Celtic, that Taylor's journey took a turn for the prolific. With 12 first-team appearances in the 2019 - 2020 debut season, Taylor's contribution saw a steady rise with 26 appearances the subsequent season, hitting a peak with 35 appearances and three impressive goals in the 2023 - 2024 season. In the current 2024- 2025 season at Celtic, Taylor has already appeared in 26 first team matches.

While his Celtic career has been exemplary, Taylor's performances on the European stage, and with his national team, are equally commendable. Some memorable runs include his participation in the Champions League during the 2023 - 2024 and 2024 - 2025 season for Celtic, the Scottish Cup and the League Cup in the 2024 - 2025 season, and his representations for Scotland in the Euro Qualifiers between 2022 - 2024.
