Brendan Rodgers has confirmed that Celtic defender Maik Nawrocki will be unavailable for the clash against Dundee due to a hamstring problem.
The Poland under-21 international picked up the knock against Motherwell in the Parkhead side's recent 3-1 win.
Nawrocki was substituted for Cameron Carter-Vickers in the second half of the match at Fir Park as the former Tottenham centre-back made his return from injury.
And Rodgers provided an update on his squad ahead of the visit of Tony Doherty's side.
"He [Nawrocki] has felt his hamstring in the game so that will set him out, I don't think for too long, but a period of time," Rodgers said.
"[Carter-Vickers] will need managing but he is ready to start if need be. You see the difference when he comes into the game at the weekend.
"He's a top operator but we just have to be mindful of his minutes and his time."
Why are you making commenting on The National only available to subscribers?
We know there are thousands of National readers who want to debate, argue and go back and forth in the comments section of our stories. We’ve got the most informed readers in Scotland, asking each other the big questions about the future of our country.
Unfortunately, though, these important debates are being spoiled by a vocal minority of trolls who aren’t really interested in the issues, try to derail the conversations, register under fake names, and post vile abuse.
So that’s why we’ve decided to make the ability to comment only available to our paying subscribers. That way, all the trolls who post abuse on our website will have to pay if they want to join the debate – and risk a permanent ban from the account that they subscribe with.
The conversation will go back to what it should be about – people who care passionately about the issues, but disagree constructively on what we should do about them. Let’s get that debate started!
