Stilijan Petrov is the best all-round midfielder of “Celtic” for the 21st century, according to the media in Scotland. Some even believe that he has been the best so far in the entire championship.
“There is no such combination of defensive skills, accurate passing and cannon shot,” writes “Daily Record”.
An attempt at ranking is made on the basis of the first 25 years of the century in Scotland.
Stilijan was bought by CSKA in the summer of 1999 and stayed at the Scottish giants until the end of the championship in 2006.
During this period, “Celtic” became the champion of Scotland four times, won the cup three times, the league cup three times and played in the final of the UEFA cup.
Then he was sold to the English “Aston Villa”.
At the moment, Stilijan has become the face of one of the major sponsors of the Champions League and is handing out tickets for the matches along with other legends.
The show is incredible, with Aston Villa legends going around Birmingham, announcing their place to fans, then drawing names from everyone in attendance.
There is a separate contract with “Sky” for “Celtic” matches in the Champions League. His first was against “Slovan”, which ended with a major victory for the Scots.
The draw of the most prestigious tournament brought together especially for Stilijan the two teams in which he played on the Island. The match will be in Birmingham, and it will be in January next year in the last rounds of the championship phase. And it could prove fatal for one of the two teams.
