Celtic have called up four untried players for tonight’s match against Hibs after 13 players were forced to self isolate as close contacts of Chris Jullien.
The names of the players haven’t yet been released but with 30 players in the squad that trained in Dubai there is still more than enough to field a team to take on Hibs tonight.
Being left out of a 30 man squad is a bit of a blow but according to a report in The Sun four of the stay at home squad are set to be involved in tonight’s match:
A raft of kids including Karamoko Dembele, Armstrong Oko-Flex, Barry Coffey and Cameron Harper have been called up by Celtic for the clash.
Dembele played for a couple of minutes in the opening match of the season at home to Hamilton but the other three are still waiting to make their Celtic debut.
With Neil Lennon and John Kennedy self isolating the team will be managed by Gavin Strachan with Tommy McIntyre and Stephen McManus from the Reserve/Development squad brought in to assist.
The team will be announced at 6.30pm tonight.
