Tom Rogic is the latest addition to Celtic’s lengthy injury list.
The midfielder played four times for Australia at the Asian Cup in the UAE and is now facing a six week lay off!
????? BR on Tom Rogic: “Unfortunately, he will be out for up to six weeks. He’s seen a knee specialist in London but we’ll be without him for a while.”

Celtic were concerned about the fitness of Rogic ahead of the tournament with Rogic left out of the friendly with Oman.
Rogic joins a lengthy injury list with Filip Benkovic and Dedryck Boyata definitely out of the Europa League ties against Valencia while Kieran Tierney is a major doubt after almost two months out of the side.
Celtic are well off for attacking options but the loss of a big match specialist is a major blow as the season reaches a critical phase.
Oliver Burke, Timo Weah, Ryan Christie and Callum McGregor can all play in the advanced midfield role but in the most significant matches of the last two seasons Rogic has produced the goods.
