Celtic FC is gearing up for the upcoming Masters Football tournament, scheduled for November 14, 2024, in Aberdeen. This annual six-a-side competition has seen the Bhoys participate for the past two years, and they are fresh off a victory last year, having triumphed over their traditional rivals, including Rangers, Heart of Midlothian, and Hibernian.
This year, the tournament will take place at the P&J Live arena in Aberdeen, a change from last year’s venue at Braehead. Fans can look forward to watching some of their favorite former players as they showcase their skills once again, bringing a nostalgic atmosphere to the event. After last year’s challenges with the pitch conditions, local Celtic supporters are hopeful for a smoother experience this time around.
With the excitement building, details have emerged about the Celtic lineup for this year’s Masters tournament. BBC Scotland’s Sportscene will provide live coverage, ensuring fans won’t miss a moment of the action. The lineup includes notable names like Stiliyan Petrov, Scott Brown, Charlie Mulgrew, Simon Donnelly, Gary Hooper, Darren O’Dea, Joe Ledley, and goalkeeper Michael McGovern.
Scott Brown’s presence is sure to electrify the crowd, while the return of Charlie Mulgrew, who recently transitioned out of competitive football, adds an intriguing element to the defense. Stiliyan Petrov, known for his exceptional midfield play, will bring valuable experience to the team, complemented by familiar faces like Gary Hooper and Joe Ledley.
As the tournament approaches, fans are encouraged to attend and relive the glory days of Celtic legends facing off against formidable opponents. Mid-November in Aberdeen promises to be an exciting occasion for both players and supporters alike, celebrating the enduring legacy of the club in a fun and competitive atmosphere.
