    Still missing a real DM in the squad, but Brown will do for another season, I suppose. Need to look at getting somebody in long term to replace him, though, and give the option to rotate.

    CELTIC Football Club are delighted to announce the signing Greg Taylor on a four-year contract from Kilmarnock. The 21-year-old took time out of the Scotland training camp to head to Paradise and put pen to paper on his Celtic deal.

    The highly-rated Scotland internationalist moves to the Treble Treble winners after spending the past five years with Kilmarnock. During that time, he made over 130 appearances for the club, scoring one goal and gaining full international honours, winning his first Scotland cap against Belgium in June.

    And having sealed his dream move to Paradise, Celtic’s latest addition was clearly delighted when he spoke exclusively to Celtic TV.

    “It’s been a whirlwind of a day but I’m over the moon to be here and thankfully that’s it over the line,” Greg Taylor said. “As soon as I knew of Celtic’s interest, I was desperate to come, so it’s been a great day, certainly now that it’s done.

    “It’s massive club, everyone knows that, and I’m here to win trophies, it’s as simple as that and I can’t wait to hopefully be a part of it. I’m delighted to be a Celtic player, and I want to try and impress the fans, and obviously the manager.

    “A club this size wants to win trophies and they have done over the past few years, and now that I’m here, I want to help the team win more trophies.”

    Taylor will link up again with the Scotland squad, and his new Celtic team-mates in it – Callum McGregor, Ryan Christie and James Forrest – to continue preparations for the Euro 2020 qualifiers against Russia and Belgium.

    And while his focus will be on helping Steve Clarke’s side over the next week, he’s also looking forward to reporting for club duty at Lennoxtown and meeting up with the rest of the Celtic squad.

    “We’ve got massive games coming up against Russia and Belgium,” Taylor said, “so we know what our jobs are for those games and hopefully we can get some more points on the table, but after that, I’ll be back in next Tuesday with Celtic.

    “Callum, Ryan and James are with the Scotland squad just now and they were asking me today what was happening. Now that it’s over the line I can’t wait to be part of this squad, and to say that I’m a Celtic player is a dream come true.

    “As a footballer, you want to win games and here the demand is to win every game, but I’m looking forward to that pressure. Hopefully, it will bring the best out in me, and it really is a massive honour to have signed for this club.”

    Welcome to Celtic :shamrock:

    Young.
    Scottish.
    Knows the league.
    Knows the city.
    Crunched Joey Barton.
    SPL Team of the Season last year.

    Should be some good competition between him and Boli for the starting spot.

    How does it work with Killie being put out of Europe - is it 2 teams the player has to have played for in 1 season to be cup tied?

    Kilmarnock Football Club can tonight confirm that Greg Taylor has signed for Celtic for an undisclosed fee.

    A product of the club’s youth academy, Greg quickly rose through the ranks to establish himself as a key player at Rugby Park, playing a big role in the Steve Clarke team that secured our highest league finish in over 50 years.

    He developed from a young academy player to a Scotland international in the space of a few years, and made 131 appearances in his time at the club.

    The club would like to thank Greg for his services to Kilmarnock Football Club, and wishes him the best for the future
