Callum McGregor has penned several glorious chapters in Celtic story over his years at Parkhead.
But the skipper didn’t expect to end up as a character on World Book Day. McGregor was chuffed when a young fan dressed up as his Hoops hero clutching a copy of his autobiography at school for the international reading celebration occasion. The 29-year-old’s career has been more comic book stuff as he came through the ranks at Lennoxtown to become one of the most decorated player in the club’ history. But the midfield playmaker insists he’s story is far from complete and he’s out to create another dramatic episode against Rangers this weekend.
McGregor said: “I never thought I would end up in World Book Day! Sometimes you forget the impact you can have, you just feel normal, like you’re going about your business. At the end of the day, you’re just a normal wee boy from the east end of Glasgow and that never leaves you. When you see things like that, it hits home about what you’ve achieved and about what you can do for young kids to try to inspire them to do similar to what you’ve done.
