Celtic Hit with Hefty UEFA Fine for Champions League Incidents

Celtic Football Club has been slapped with a substantial fine by UEFA, totaling over £22,500, following two incidents that occurred during their recent Champions League victory over RB Leipzig.

The Hoops have been penalized for blocking public passageways and an invasion of the pitch, with UEFA imposing fines of €12,000 and €15,000, respectively. This latest financial blow brings Celtic’s overall fine tally to a staggering £200,000 over the past two seasons.

Furthermore, the club has received a warning from UEFA regarding two incidents that transpired during their draw with Atalanta in Bergamo. The warning pertains to a late kickoff, which was attributed to both the club and manager Brendan Rodgers.

This is not the first instance of Celtic facing UEFA’s wrath this season. The club was previously handed a suspended fan ban after supporters ignored warnings regarding the use of pyrotechnics during their 7-1 defeat to Borussia Dortmund.

A UEFA statement outlining the latest fine reads: “Celtic FC Incidents and sanction: • Blocking of public passageways, Art. 38 UEFA Safety and Security Regulations Fine: €12,000 • Invasion of the field of play, Art. 16(2)(a) DR Fine: €15,000.”

Regarding the Atalanta warning, UEFA stated: “Incidents and sanction: • Late kick-off, Art. 11(2)(h) DR Warning. Late kick-off (Mr. Brendan Rodgers), Art. 11(2)(h) DR Warning.”

Atalanta also faced disciplinary action, receiving fines totaling €19,000 (approximately £16,000) for blocking public passageways and the lighting of fireworks during the same match.
