The institution that is Celtic, hailing from the hallowed ground of Scotland, was born one November day in 1887, specifically the sixth. Their home turf, appropriately named Celtic Park, carries a rich tapestry of history.
The hoops of Celtic find themselves backed by a somewhat formidable squad, boasting a total market value just shy of £119m according to trustworthy sources, namely Transfermarkt.
The team currently stands 38 players strong with an average age of 25, a promising prospect as it suggests the presence of fresh legs with the ability to endure and potentially, long careers under the famous green and white hoops.
The current campaign witnesses the Bhoys demonstrating their prowess over a diversely testing series of five competitions so far. This includes the Premiership, where they occupy the esteemed second place, the League Cup where they withstood the trials and tribulations to reach the Final, and the Scottish Cup, with their journey halting, for now, at the Quarter-Finals.
On the European front, they've asserted their mettle in the Champions League Qualifiers, making their mark until the Play-Offs. Simultaneously, their battle in the Europa League led them through to the Knockout Play-offs, displaying their equally worth-mentioning impact on non-domestic soils.
