The entrance to the Tollbooth building, at Glasgow Cross, and nearby traffic lights were vandalised either late on Saturday night or in the early hours of Sunday.
The local authority also condemned the “unacceptable” mess left behind by those who descended on Glasgow City Centre on Saturday afternoon after the club lifted the trophy at Parkhead.
A Glasgow City Council spokesman said: “We’re dismayed and disappointed over the vandalism that occurred in the Glasgow Cross area over the weekend in connection with football-related celebrations.
“The extent of the damage to the Mercat Cross building is being assessed and nearby traffic lights that were damaged have been repaired.
“The mess left behind by fans was unacceptable and our teams worked overnight on Saturday and into Sunday to ensure the streets were back to normal as soon as possible.”
