John McGinn unlikely to join Celtic in 2026?

John McGinn is unlikely to join Celtic in 2026, according to Football Insider.

Aston Villa are in talks with McGinn over a new deal, with the Scottish defender unlikely to be tempted by a move to Celtic.

Journalst Pete O’Rourke said on the Inside Track podcast: “I will be surprised if it was to happen anytime soon.

“It could happen in the future, there’s no doubt about that. There are strong links between John McGinn and Celtic.

I think his granddad was Celtic chairman at one point as well. Got to remember, he came very close to moving to Celtic before he joined Villa in 2018.

“The deal to Celtic was almost done before it stalled and Villa obviously swooped in and the rest is history.

“There’s a deep connection between John McGinn and Celtic, but I don’t think John McGinn will be considering a move back up to Scotland any time soon.

“You can never rule out a move in the future. I’m sure it’s a move that might pull on his heartstrings in the future.”
