Happy Birthday to Celtic recently legend – 25 years old today!
Anthony Ralston, born on the 16th of November, 1998 in Scotland,
is a stalwart of Celtic’s defence, primarily operating as a right-back.
With a stature of 5ft 11in (1.82m), he’s not the tallest,
but he makes up for it with his robust physique, weighing in at around 12st 3lb (78kg).
Ralston dons the number 56 jersey and has also enjoyed the prestige of representing the Scottish national team.
Currently, his market value is approximately €1.80m,
which converts to nearly £1.6m according to Transfermarkt,
a reputable site for such information. His contract with the Hoops
extends another 2 years and 7 months, with it set to expire on the 31st of May, 2027.
In July 2015, Ralston embarked on a journey from the green pastures of
Celtic to Queen’s Park in the Championship on a loan deal.
During his time there, he made ten first-team appearances and found the back
of the net once in league matches. However, January 2016 saw the defender return to Celtic to resume his duties.
From his 2015-2016 season to the present day 2024-2025 season at Celtic,
Ralston has exhibited a steadfast commitment to the club.
His appearances have varied across seasons, with his most active season being
2021-2022 where he made 28 first-team appearances and netted four times.
In the current season, he has already made five first-team appearances and scored once.
However, Ralston’s journey was not without its share of further loan spells.
He moved to Dundee United in March 2018 and continued his
stint until June the same year, when he would once again return to Celtic.
Undeterred, Ralston would again be loaned out to St Johnstone in September 2019.
Here, he made 22 first-team appearances before returning back to Celtic in June 2020, where he has since remained.
Ralston’s prowess hasn’t just been confined to the league.
He’s had starts in the League Cup, Scottish Cup, and Champions League for Celtic,
while also representing Scotland at Euro 2024 with three starts,
Euro Qualifiers with a substitute appearance, and the Nations League with four starts.
