Ex-Celtic star Charlie Mulgrew moves family back to Glasgow as son starts with Hoops

Former Celtic player Charlie Mulgrew and his family have moved back to Glasgow as his son Josh starts his term with the Hoops.

Charlie's wife Alana announced that the family had moved back to Glasgow for good on her Instagram as she said goodbye to their friends in Lytham St Annes.

Charlie and Alana, their two sons Josh and Jacob and daughter Aaliyah, have been located there since he moved from Glasgow to Blackburn Rovers and then Fleetwood Town.

An emotional Alana wrote: "It’s been a bitter sweet day. We have moved around the uk for 16 years."

"We’ve had some very lonely times and then been lucky to meet some unbelievable people along the way. Lytham was the longest time we have spent in one house. 4.5yrs."

She added: 'We settled so well that’s it’s been the toughest decision for us as a family to decide on where to settle once and for all.

"Lytham is beautiful, but god the people where even better. They where like my family. It’s broke my heart leaving them today.

"I will miss you all so much. It’s been an absolute pleasure to see you guys everyday! I love you to bits."

Alana then shared some pictures of the unpacked boxes in their new home, showing off one bedroom that still had lots of clutter from them.

After she questioned: "Unpack the boxes or enjoy the sun. It’s an easy decision really", one of her friends suggested: "Leave the boxes A. You know what Glasgow is like. Sunshine is rare xx"

Alana also shared a picture of her two youngest children with their dad saying they had a great first day at their new school and that she was proud of them.

She also revealed the couples eldest son Josh, 12, is now in training with Celtic under 14's club.

Showing off a picture of Josh in his green and white team strip as he followed in his dad's footsteps, she wrote: 'He's got his first training session with Celtic under 14's tomorrow.

"It's a big day for him @joshmulgrew."

The family have been renovating their house in Glasgow for several years now and Alana has kept her followers up to date with the home improvements as they happen.

They had to extensively rework the outside of the building and have built a new kitchen, bedrooms and bathrooms too.
