However, despite his impressive first-half display, Kuhn had to leave the pitch earlier than planned due to a knee issue. Rodgers addressed the situation post-match, noting, “We wanted to play him a little bit longer but he just felt a little bit on his knee but he was very good.” [Celtic TV]
While the injury doesn’t appear to be severe, it’s a situation that Celtic will be monitoring closely.
The hope is that this niggle doesn’t evolve into a more serious problem, especially given Kuhn’s promising start and potential impact for the team in the upcoming season. His ability to make decisive plays and contribute significantly in attack is something Celtic would want to preserve as they prepare for competitive fixtures ahead.
Up next is Chelsea for Celtic as they bring their pre-season tour to an end.
