Logan Bailly has not played for Celtic since Brendan Rodgers took charge.

According to a report in the Daily Express, Logan Bailly could come into Celtic’s squad for the foreseeable future.

Bailly joined Celtic back in 2015, but he has barely featured for the Glasgow club.

The 31-year-old stopper is yet to play for the Bhoys since Brendan Rodgers took charge at the start of the season.

However, Bailly is set to come into Celtic’s thinking in the coming weeks, as Dorus De Vries is out injured.

De Vries needs to have surgery on a troublesome ankle injury, which will keep him out for most of the rest of the campaign.

The Dutch goalkeeper has generally been used in reserve to Craig Gordon at Parkhead this season, and Bailly will now take his place on the substitutes’ bench.

Although Gordon will continue as Celtic’s first choice, if the Scotland international goalkeeper does suffer an injury, Bailly will be forced to step in.

Celtic’s next match comes against Dundee at Dens Park at the weekend.
