Joe Hart hypes Callum McGregor Celtic influence as veteran goalie delivers 'special commitment' claim

Joe Hart claims there is nobody who loves a club as much as Callum McGregor loves Celtic - stating that he has 'never seen anyone as committed' as the Hoops skipper.

McGregor has been at his childhood club for 22 years, joining when he was just eight years old in the youth academy, and barring a loan spell at Notts County ten years ago, he's been an ever-present at Celtic ever since. 419 apearances, with the skipper being a complete mainstay since 2015, has seen him become an absolute Celtic favourite; especially after being appointed as captain following Scott Brown's departure in 2021.

So much is his influence that other players are staring to feel just how important he is to Celtic. And when Hart - a player who has won 10 major trophies in his playing career - praises you for your commitment to the cause, you know that you are doing something right.

Hart told the Celtic View: "I've never seen anyone as committed to a club as Callum, and it's very special to be around. I love people like that, I love people who are not only committed and obviously a big fan of the club, but he's a really good player - like he's a top, top player.

"He drives every single standard of every training session and, of every match. He's really valued here and he really values Celtic. So it's a superb position for him to be in, and hats off to him, I think he's a real credit to the club."
