New Celtic signing Marvin Compper could be out for up to a month after picking up a calf injury during the club's winter training camp in Dubai.

The 32-year-old joined the Scottish champions from RB Leipzig on January 1, but Celtic fans will have to wait to see the new man in action after Brendan Rodgers revealed details of his injury.

The manager said: "Marvin has gelled very well. He was unfortunate that he got injured when he was out there so we will have to wait and see how long that's going to be.

"It looks like it could be three to four weeks. That's unfortunate but he has settled into the squad well."
