Tom Rogic is out of the Celtic squad to play Kilmarnock tomorrow at Rugby Park.

Video Celts understands that concerns about playing on the plastic surface have forced the midfielder to call off.

Rogic was left on the bench during last week’s win over Hamilton with Neil Lennon still having a number of attacking options on the bench to pick from.

In January Rogic played against Partick Thistle and Ross County after the winter break but missed out inbetween on the 3-1 midweek win away to Kilmarnock.

Back in 2016 Rogic did play on the Kilmarnock plastic, scoring a spectacular last minute winner while Ronny Deila’s side were really struggling.

After a full week between matches Lennon’s side will be along similar lines to the one that beat Hamilton 5-1 last week in the opening SPFL fixture.

The big decision for the Celtic manager to make is in goals with new signing Vasilis Barkas pushing for a start after his first full week in training.
