Celtic have confirmed that their second positive coronavirus player was not involved against Hibs or Livingston.

A club statement read: "The Club can confirm that following the most recent round of COVID-19 testing, everyone within the playing squad involved last Monday and Saturday have again recorded negative tests.

"The isolating group of 16 people have all recorded negative tests, apart from one player.

"The player will continue to isolate and we wish him a speedy recovery. We can confirm that all other players and management staff have now returned to training."

Neil Lennon, assistant John Kennedy and 13 players had to self-isolate after Christopher Jullien tested positive for coronavirus following Celtic's trip to Dubai.

Ahead of the Hoops' trip to Livingston on Wednesday, a defiant Lennon said: “Another player has been deemed positive,  it is someone who is self-isolating.

“Everyone is negative bar two players.

“I think that is remarkable and blows out the water the way the trip has been portrayed in certain quarters of the media, by certain pundits and by certain government officials as well.”
