Celtic fans have taken to Twitter after the Club announced that Greg Taylor had signed a new four-year contract at Parkhead.
What is the history?
Well, the 24-year-old has apparently impressed Ange Postecoglou enough to win a new contract at Celtic Park.
Taylor has made four Scottish Premiership starts for the Australian this season, in which he has provided an assist.

The left-back has also made four starts in the Europa League, as Celtic are third in a very difficult group that includes Real Betis and Bayer Leverkusen.
Taylor has been solid, although much of the reaction was one of confusion, with fans wondering how he got a new deal.
However, as seen below, some fans felt differently and found the positive in Celtic’s decision.
Postecoglou is clearly confident of the 5-match Scottish international, which should be good enough for those fans who question the move.

It may not be the first name on the roster, but having players like Taylor is vitally important.
Josip Juranovic has played as a left back for most of the current season, with Anthony Ralston as a right back.
However, having someone like Taylor breathe down his neck will only be a good thing for Juranovic as it will keep him on his toes.

Footballers need to stay motivated and it is very easy to disconnect if there is no direct competitor for your position.
In that regard, Celtic and Postecoglou have made the right decision regarding the £ 3 million man.
For now, let’s see what Celtic fans have been saying on Twitter about the announcement …

From the early stages, he seems like a player Ange is confident in that position.
He thinks it can make him a better player and hopefully he will see it as time goes on, giving us a solid option on the left back https://t.co/vkAB8oCova

I am happy with this! Taylor has always had an unduly difficult time with our support … many of the same guys point to an ever-improving Starfelt https://t.co/9F2cwgpk8w

I’m not sure of the length, but it looks considerably better with a manager with “tactics” and “instructions” so hopefully it can get started when it’s back https://t.co/aXCVW1AizP

Very strange.
Usually good performances lead to contract extension ???? https://t.co/iOsTFaN5rt
