McGeouch grew up in the Milton area of Glasgow, supporting Celtic.[1][2]
He started his career with Celtic and was often a ball boy during his time there.[3] However, he left in 2008 after his brother, Darren, who was also in Celtic's youth system, fell out of favour with the club. Dylan then went to Rangers, but he returned to Celtic in 2011 after Neil Lennon personally visited his house and asked him to come back.[4] Rangers manager Walter Smith had personally appealed to McGeouch to stay at Rangers.[1]
McGeouch made his debut on 6 November 2011 when he came on as a late substitute in a 2–1 win over Motherwell.[5] On 26 November, he made his second appearance for Celtic. Coming on as a 64th minute substitute for James Forrest. Eight minutes later he scored his first goal for the club, a 'wonderful solo goal'. He collected the ball deep inside his own half and ran 70 yards, dribbling past several St. Mirren players, before striking a low left foot shot into the back of the net to seal a 5-0 victory.[6][4]
