Celtic have been dealt a potential injury blow regarding central midfielder Tom Rogic.

What's the latest?

In recent comments cited by The Scottish Sun, Hoops boss Ange Postecoglou revealed that the 28-year-old, who was withdrawn in the first half of Celtic's 3-1 win over Hibernian on Wednesday evening, appears to have pulled his hamstring.

He went on to state that he will have to wait and see how the Australia international recovers in the coming days as to whether or not Rogic will be available for selection for the visit of Livingston on Saturday.

On the midfielder's injury, the 56-year-old Bhoys manager said: "Tom did feel something in his hamstring. It's wait and see. We'll just assess it. He was outstanding in the first half. His ability to find space is second to none.

"We had three quick boys up front, technically good, and he was key to getting the best out of them. He's played a lot for us but, hopefully, he's OK. I'm not that good, I'm not really sure, he said it didn't feel too bad."

Major blow

Considering just how impressive Rogic has been for Celtic so far this season, in addition to the fact that Postecoglou has already had to deal with something of an injury crisis at Parkhead during the opening stages of his reign as the Hoops manager, should the 28-year-old be ruled out for any length of time, it will undoubtedly leave fans very worried.

Indeed, over his 11 Scottish Premiership fixtures this term, the £1.35m-rated man has scored one goal, registered two assists and created five big chances for his teammates, as well as taking an average of 1.2 shots and making 1.5 key passes per game.

These returns have seen the £16k-per-week midfielder average a SofaScore match rating of 6.97, with the Australian making up one-third of Celtic's impressive midfield trio alongside David Turnbull and Callum McGregor - who have each been influential in the Bhoys' ongoing run of five consecutive victories in all competitions.

As such, with two massive Europa League ties coming up for Celtic in November, should Rogic's injury rule him out of action for these two clashes, it will certainly come as a major blow to Postecoglou - at a time when things finally appeared to be looking on the up at Parkhead.
