Worrying Kuhn Injury Update

There will be no involvement this evening for Celtic winger Nicolas Kuhn. The German wideman, who was withdrawn at half-time after a brilliant first-half cameo against Manchester City, is nursing a knee knock Rodgers confirmed to Celtic TV. Kuhn scored twice and assisted another goal in that match, showcasing his impressive form. However, he was later pictured with strapping on his right knee during training.

Brendan Rodgers confirmed that Kuhn’s absence tonight is due to the knee issue, and he is cautious about risking a flare-up with the SPFL kick-off just around the corner. Kuhn’s performance on Tuesday night was exceptional, and his absence on Saturday is a blow for Celtic if the injury sidelines him for a spell.

As the Hoops prepare to face Chelsea in Indiana tonight, fans will undoubtedly hope that the bhoys can make it three wins out of three on the road in America.

With Cameron Carter-Vickers making his first pre-season appearance and the team looking to maintain their winning momentum, the match against Chelsea will be crucial in fine-tuning the squad’s readiness for the Killie game next Sunday.
