Callum McGregor: This is my best title ever

Callum McGregor picked up his 11th league title, and he declared this season’s triumph the best ever.

Celtic’s dramatic 3-1 victory over Hearts at Paradise, courtesy of goals from Arne Engels, Daizen Maeda and Callum Osmand, sealed the club’s fifth title in a row.

And the Celtic captain praised his team-mates for their efforts throughout the course of what has often been a tough campaign.

Speaking to Celtic TV on the pitch after lifting the trophy, Callum McGregor said: “It’s the best… the way the game ended and the emotion. We had to win.

“It wasn’t a great first-half but these boys just keep going and going and going, and eventually we got our reward. What a special day.

'You can’t do this job without being emotional. You can’t separate the two.'

When things were as bad as they were in December, you feel it every single day and you want to fix it, so when you get it right you also have that equal level of emotion that just spills over.

“This is what this place does to you. You carry it every day in life and to be able to give the supporters this type of day back for such a hard season, I’m so proud of the players.”
