CELTIC have suffered another injury blow with Josip Juranovic forced off against Dundee United.
The Croatian full-back was back in the starting line-up for the visit of Dundee United but only lasted 25 minutes before hobbling off.
Juranovic, who was deployed at left-back, suffered a leg knock and felt he couldn't continue.
And he signalled to his team-mates to put the ball out to allow him to come off after playing on in discomfort.
It's just the latest of a string of injuries suffered by key Parkhead figures.
Kyogo Furuhashi and skipper Callum McGregor missed today's match through injury.
Giorgos Giakoumakis is also sidelined after sustaining a calf injury in the warm-up to the clash with Raith Rovers.
Ange Postecoglou does have back-up at left-back in youngster Adam Montgomery and Boli Bolingoli.
And it was Montgomery who was brought on to replace the limping Juranovic with Bolingoli not in today's squad.
