Jota: Celtic winged player up to nine months, and the knee injury suffered in the Scottish Prime Minister’s title of victory | Football news

The Celtic winged player of Jota has been excluded between six and nine months, confirmed manager Brendan Rodgers.

The 26-year-old-Koji returned to the club from Rennes for £ 8m in January-had a serious knee injury during the 5-0 win last weekend at Dundee United.

It was removed during the first half in the Tannad Park, while Celtic sealed the fourth consecutive Scottish title of the Premiership and left the stadium on the crutches.

“Not great news for him and us,” Rodgers said Sky Sports News.

“It didn’t look so bad, but when he scanned on his knee, it seems he’ll probably come out six to nine months.

“In it, he did his cross and a little other damage.

“He is quite optimistic and philosophically in connection with this. He had challenging a few years after he flew out of here to Saudi.

“This will give him the opportunity to come back even stronger.”
