Celtic Winger Maeda out with Hamstring Injury


Celtic winger Daizen Maeda's season is in doubt after suffering a hamstring injury, with manager Brendan Rodgers unsure if he will return before the end of the campaign.

The Japan international will miss Saturday's Scottish Premiership match against with St Mirren while Celtic's medical team assess the extent of the problem.

Manager Brendan Rodgers said: "Daizen will miss the weekend. He picked up an injury high in his hamstring, his tendon, so we will have to see what that looks like in the coming weeks. But he is certainly not available for the weekend.

"We will see where it goes in the next week or so and then we will understand better what inclusion he will have between now and the end of the season.

"Liam Scales has picked up a slight strain in his abductor so the likelihood is that he won't be involved."
