Lubo Moravcik – “Football Is For The Fans, Celtic Was Perfect For Me”

Were you to ask any Celtic fan who followed the club at the turn of the century who their Top 3 Celts were then this man would almost certainly feature in every list. Lubo Moravcik was quite simply a genius of a footballer. Described by Zinedine Zidane as one of the greatest No.10’s in the game we were fortunate enough to see him grace Celtic Park for a glorious three and a half year spell from October 1998 until April 2002. Signed by countryman Dr Josef Venglos the Slovak would arrive at Celtic as a relative unknown, before leaving as a modern day club legend. Special goals and moments of magic were the order of the day for Celtic’s No.25 and we were delighted to welcome him to The Celtic Exchange this week. He spoke passionately of his time in the Hoops and described Celtic as the perfect club at the perfect time in his life. Famously, when told that Celtic supporters see him as a “Gift from God” he replied modestly that in fact Celtic, was God’s gift to him. Humble, good humoured and an absolute hero, please enjoy this very special episode with Lubo Moravcik.
