Cameron Carter-Vickers to miss Celtic's Champions League clash with Borussia Dortmund

Cameron Carter-Vickers has been ruled out of Celtic’s Champions League clash with Borussia Dortmund.

The USA international remained in Glasgow as the rest of the squad flew to Germany for the match at Signal Iduna Park, having failed to recover from a toe injury that saw him miss recent games.

Manager Brendan Rodgers said he may be ft by the weekend but couldn’t make the trip for what is a huge match for the Scottish champions.

“Cam is not available. We’ll see what he’s like going into next weekend, but he’s not here for this one.,” Rodgers said.

“Clearly he’s a top-class player for us and he’s missed a little bit of Champions League football I think in his time.

“Five of the 12 games the club has played he has unfortunately not been able to play in.

“But we have other players. It’s always an opportunity for somebody else to come in and hopefully we can get Cam back sooner rather than later.

“But we can’t over-think it. We will rely on the collective. There’s not one player that brings our results and how we have been this season. Of course he’s a very important player, Cam, but for us to get a result it will be about the collective.”

Summer signing Auston Trusty stepped into the team for matches against Falkirk and St Johnstone and he now looks set to get the nod for his side’s biggest test of the season so far.
