Ryan Christie has silenced a lot of doubters this season by rising from the periphery at Celtic and becoming a first-team star.

Brendan Rodgers has placed his faith in Christie this season. And the young midfielder has repaid that faith with some excellent performances.

As a result, he has earned himself a new deal at Celtic Park and he is a permanent fixture in the starting line-up now.

And now he needs to kick on and take his career to the next level for both club and country.

His short-term goals with Celtic will include playing his part in delivering a third consecutive domestic treble and aiming for success in Europe.

But his wholehearted focus will now be on Scotland’s UEFA Nations League clash tonight.

At Hampden Park tonight, the Scots face Israel in a winner-takes-all encounter with promotion to play for.

Christie will be hoping to win his fifth cap for Scotland as he aims to lead a heavily depleted side to promotion.

Scottish fans have not had much to cheer about in recent times but the 23-year-old could be at the heart of a revival in the coming years.

If Christie can lead Scotland to victory over Israel tonight, it could be the start of a special career for Celtic and Scotland for the attacking midfielder.
