Celtic have been dealt a major setback as manager Brendan Rodgers confirmed that one of his key players is set to undergo surgery following a recent injury. The news comes as a huge concern for the Hoops, who are already battling to regain form after a difficult run of games.
Speaking to the media, Rodgers revealed that the player’s injury was more serious than initially feared, and medical assessments concluded that surgery was the only option for a full recovery. The manager described the development as “a real blow” to the team, especially with several crucial fixtures coming up in both domestic and European competitions.
Rodgers added that the club will provide full support to the player during his rehabilitation, emphasizing the importance of a complete and careful recovery rather than rushing back to action.
While the manager did not specify an exact return date, early reports suggest the player could be sidelined for several weeks or even months, depending on post-surgery progress.
Celtic fans will now be hoping for a smooth operation and a speedy recovery, as the club faces the challenge of reshuffling the squad to maintain momentum in Rodgers’ ongoing rebuild.
