Greg Taylor Would Quit Celtic for Rangers as Ally McCoist Senses Major Transfer Shift in Glasgow
Glasgow, April 9, 2025 — Former Rangers legend Ally McCoist has stirred the pot in Scottish football with a bold claim that Celtic left-back Greg Taylor would consider a sensational switch across the city to Rangers, as he senses a “major transfer shift” looming in Glasgow.
Speaking during a recent football panel, McCoist suggested that the dynamics of the Old Firm rivalry could be entering a new era, with players now more open to controversial moves that were once deemed unthinkable.
“Greg Taylor is the kind of player I could see making that move,” McCoist said. “He’s professional, he’s ambitious, and if the opportunity was right at Rangers, I genuinely think he’d consider it. There’s a different vibe around transfers in Glasgow right now.”
Taylor, who joined Celtic from Kilmarnock in 2019, has been a key figure in the Hoops’ recent domestic dominance. However, the 27-year-old has faced increasing competition this season and speculation has mounted about his future.
While no official statement has been made by Taylor or either club, McCoist’s comments have added fuel to the fire, especially with the summer transfer window approaching.
The idea of a direct move between Celtic and Rangers remains one of the most divisive topics in Scottish football, with few players willing to cross the divide. If Taylor were to make the jump, it would mark one of the most high-profile switches in recent years.
Both Celtic and Rangers fans have reacted strongly online, with debates raging over loyalty, professionalism, and the evolving nature of player allegiances in modern football.
As of now, the ball remains firmly in Greg Taylor’s court. But one thing is clear — the Glasgow football scene might be on the brink of another dramatic twist.
