Callum McGregor’s Commitment: Celtic Captain’s Pledge Amid Injury Concerns

Callum McGregor, the captain of Celtic, has vowed to do everything in his power to be ready for the upcoming Old Firm Derby against Rangers, despite recent injury concerns. McGregor, a key player for the Hoops, missed the previous match against Rangers due to a calf injury, which has raised questions about his availability for the crucial upcoming fixture.

Despite former Celtic striker Chris Sutton's assertion that fans believe McGregor should be rested to ensure his long-term fitness, McGregor himself disagrees. The midfielder insists on his commitment to the team and his desire to play in every possible game. His determination was further highlighted in a statement released by Celtic FC, where he expressed his willingness to push through the pain barrier for the sake of the team.

The absence of McGregor in the last Rangers clash was a significant talking point, with some attributing Celtic's defeat to his absence. As the captain and a pivotal player, McGregor's presence on the pitch is seen as vital for Celtic's performance, especially in high-stakes games like the upcoming Derby.
