Celtic's Beran Kayal faces six to seven weeks out with foot injury

Celtic manager Neil Lennon has confirmed that midfielder Beram Kayal will be out of action for six to seven weeks with a foot injury.

The 25-year-old broke a bone in his foot during the Scottish outfit's 3-0 defeat to AC Milan in the Champions League on Tuesday night.

Lennon said in a press conference today: "Beram Kayal has broken a bone in his foot so he is going for a CT scan today to see if it requires a screw putting in. He will be out for six or seven weeks with that."

Celtic are preparing for their Scottish Cup fourth-round match against Hearts at Tynecastle on Sunday.
