Emilio Izaguirre ruled out of Gold Cup

Emilio Izaguirre has been ruled out of the Gold Cup which starts in the United States today.

The Celtic full-back has been struggling against a hamstring strain for the last month and has been ruled out after further tests yesterday.

Izaguirre will return home to Honduras to rest the injury before rejoining Celtic for pre-season training.

Honduras boss Fernando Suarez said: “Emilio had been complaining of muscle spasms in his leg in training and was sent to a clinic in Houston for tests.

“Those tests have revealed he has a hamstring tear and has been advised to rest for at least a month. It’s a shame for him because he loves playing for his country.”
