Reo Hatate will miss Celtic’s Scottish Cup final with Aberdeen at Hampden next Saturday, his manager Brendan Rodgers has confirmed.
The Japan midfielder, 27, appeared to hurt his knee following a challenge by the Aberdeen’s Pape Gueye during Celtic’s 5-1 win at Pittodrie on Wednesday.
Hatate will also be absent for Saturday’s final league game of the season at home to St Mirren, having made 55 appearances this term and scored 11 goals.
“He’ll miss the last two games, sadly for him and for us,” said Rodgers.
“You’re probably looking that he’ll be okay for the beginning of pre-season, but it’s just a shame for us, even more so for him, that he misses these two games.”
