At least, that’s what Celtic manager Brendan Rodgers says,
adding that he’s “crossing his fingers” that both players will be fit to play following the impending international break.
On April 7, Rangers will host Celtic at Ibrox in a game that might be crucial in the Scottish Premiership title contest.
It goes without saying that Celtic has suffered a great loss with the absence of vice captain Cameron Carter Vickers and captain Callum McGregor for such a crucial match.
Will Callum McGregor’s injury affect Celtic?
With Callum McGregor sidelined due to an Achilles injury and Cameron Carter Vickers sidelined before of Rangers’ Scottish Cup victory over Livingston,
the team will be keenly monitoring the situation.
“It always is (difficult) if you have your top players and your captain not available,
” Rodgers stated in reference to McGregor. There will be other players, of course,
but his level of playfulness is above and above what many of our guys are capable of.
Hopefully, we can investigate that further and he will be available following the international break.
“Hopefully it’s nothing too serious,” the Celtics boss remarked in reference to Cameron Carter Vickers. All we can do is wait and see.
We can’t stop him from playing if the players are available and healthy;
that applies to internationals. Obviously, the USA will call him up. Sure, but we’ll have to wait and see what the scan shows.
The medical section of Rangers remains quite active.
It goes without saying that Rangers don’t have any injury issues of their own, and supporters will be skeptical of anything that comes out of Celtic’s camp.
Although there are several internet rumors that Callum McGregor will miss the entire season owing to the injury,
Celtic sources have not released an official statement on the matter.
Since joining Celtic, Cameron Carter-Vickers has sustained injuries on a regular basis.
At this point, it is evident that he is not included in the squad as a precaution.
