# Celtic: Tom Rogic ruled out of Glasgow Derby

**Celtic midfielder Tom Rogic has been ruled out of tonight’s Glasgow Derby with Rangers, [Jo Hendry](https://twitter.com/_jo_hendry/status/1488504193832914945?s=21) reports.**

### The Lowdown: Rogic in race against time

Rogic, who Ange Postecoglou labelled as [‘special’](https://www.dailyrecord.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/ange-postecoglou-gives-celtic-star-25621279), has made [31](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/tom-rogic/leistungsdaten/spieler/213672) appearances this season, contributing to [12](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/tom-rogic/leistungsdaten/spieler/213672) goals.

The Aussie has been away representing his country and [featured](https://www.flashscore.co.uk/player/rogic-tom/M98YZyPS/) against Vietnam last Thursday and Oman on Tuesday in World Cup qualifiers.

Postecoglou recently [held out hope](https://www.glasgowtimes.co.uk/sport/19885064.ange-postecoglou-outlines-celtic-return-pathway-daizen-maeda-tom-rogic-face-rangers/) of having the playmaker available in green and white this evening, but his participation against Oman yesterday has seemingly ruled him out of featuring tonight.

### The Latest: Hendry’s post

[Hendry](https://twitter.com/_jo_hendry/status/1488504193832914945?s=21) took to Twitter on Tuesday afternoon following Postecoglou’s pre-match press conference.

She relayed confirmation from Postecoglou that Rogic is ruled out of the Celtic Park clash and once again stated that Kyogo Furuhashi is weeks away from a return.

### The Verdict: Postecoglou now has options

If this game took place when it was [initially scheduled for](https://www.glasgowtimes.co.uk/sport/19885064.ange-postecoglou-outlines-celtic-return-pathway-daizen-maeda-tom-rogic-face-rangers/), then Postecoglou could have been in a bit of bother without Rogic.

However, he brought in three midfield additions in the New Year, with Reo Hatate and Matt O’Riley [catching the eye](https://www.whoscored.com/Teams/103/Show/Scotland-Celtic) in their early displays.

Therefore, with Hatate and O’Riley and Callum McGregor also having a [chance](https://twitter.com/AnthonyRJoseph/status/1488508207987363844) of featuring, Postecoglou has more than enough in midfield at his disposal to get a first win over Rangers and take the Hoops back to the top of the Scottish Premiership.
