Celtic’s Fitness Crisis Deepens | Belfast News

Celtic’s manager admits the squad is battling through a brutal fitness crisis, with key players like McGregor and Hogh sidelined by injury and even recent starters like Tierney and Carter-Vickers faltering mid-match. This isn’t new — last season’s fatigue and cramping are back, forcing younger players into unfamiliar roles. A gritty 2-1 win over Falkirk, powered by Camilo Duran’s brace, offers hope but also exposes lingering stamina issues. Newcomer Haissem Hassan made his debut, while veterans like Liam Scales are being asked to fill multiple gaps. With Balikwisha’s exit potentially freeing up funds, the club’s focus remains on building depth — though the manager stays tight-lipped on transfer plans — as they fight to regain full strength amid ongoing struggles.
