Kyogo Furuhashi shares Celtic injury update as Japanese star sends hopeful message after setback

Celtic star Kyogo Furuhashi has sent a message to fans after being ruled out for up to a month with a knee injury.

The summer signing suffered the setback playing for Japan against China in the international break, with manager Ange Postecoglou giving a timeframe of "three or four weeks" for his return.

Kyogo had made a flying start to life in Scotland, hitting three goals in four Premiership appearances.

He carried that form into the Europa League too with three in four and supporters were understandably gutted to see him ruled out.

The forward has offered a message of hope though as he shared an update on his Instagram.

The 26-year-old posted a picture of himself playing for Celtic with the caption "looking forward" and a "soon" emoji.

That could indicate that the Japanese star will be back sooner than expected, with some big games on the horizon for Postecoglou's men.

The comments were flooded with replies from Celtic fans wishing Furuhashi well, with one even inviting him to take a trip to IKEA at the weekend.
