Celtic goalkeeper Schmeichel out for up to 6 months

Kasper Schmeichel will miss another 5 to six weeks recovering from an personal injury picked up on Intercontinental obligation, ruling him from as much as 7 Celtic fixtures, manager Brendan Rodgers has verified.

The 38-12 months-previous, who may have 46 club appearances this time period, picked up the knock all through Denmark's Nations League quarter-closing 2nd-leg defeat in Portugal last thirty day period.

The Danish captain, who has 81 caps, played on during the 5-two decline that meant the Portuguese progressed 5-three on aggregate.

Questioned with regard to the very likely 5-to-six-week absence, Rodgers explained to Celtic Television: "This is just something which, working day by day, we will take a look at, however the timeline which was given to us was possibly around about that.
