Celtic manager Brendan Rodgers has revealed Reo Hatate's hamstring injury "looks a bad one" with the midfielder facing a lengthy spell on the sidelines.
The 25-year-old looked dejected as he was forced off just seven minutes into Wednesday night's Champions League draw with Atletico Madrid.
Celtic are awaiting scan results with Rodgers expecting to be without the influential player for their next few matches.
"We don't have a definitive timeline but he will definitely be out for a few weeks," he said.
"We are just waiting for it to settle down and waiting for the result and we will see where he's at but it looked quite a bad one.
"If you watch the game, the first 35 seconds he has over-stretched and he has felt it early on.
"It's such a shame for him. It's a different one. He was out with his hamstring last year, it's his other one this time. So we just need to try to get to the bottom of that."
