Chris Jullien has posted a poignant message on Instagram as football takes an indefinite break.

The French defender has made a massive impact on the park and became the most social media friendly player off the pitch.

Today he should have been putting in the final preparations for a pivotal Glasgow derby but like thousands of others he will spend his weekend wondering when he will next be in action.

Jullien has played a highly influential role in Celtic’s season, forming an impressive partnership at the back with Kris Ajer and chipping in with a number of important goals.

An 88th minute header at home to Lazio paved the way for qualification to the knock out phase of the Europa League, in December he scored the only goal of the game as Celtic won the League Cup.

Saturday’s home match against St Johnstone has been postponed with no date set for a resumption of the season with Celtic closing in on a ninth successive title win.
