Celtic defender Dane Murray focused on first-team opportunities

Summary

Dane Murray expressed his happiness at finally getting consistent playtime with Celtic, having started four consecutive matches. The defender's run comes as he steps in due to injuries to Cameron Carter-Vickers and Auston Trusty. Murray, who joined the first team under Ange Postecoglou, had previously dealt with injuries that hampered his early progress. He declined a loan move to Dundee this summer, emphasizing his commitment to Celtic. The team will face Easter Road soon, raising questions about Murray's position if Carter-Vickers returns.
