Celtic were eliminated from European competition on Thursday night after a 3-1 loss to Ajax in Amsterdam. The result followed a 1-1 draw in the first leg in Glasgow, according to Sky Sports. Manager Brendan Rodgers must now prepare his squad for a period that includes a Scottish Cup quarter-final and a Glasgow derby.
Per The Guardian, the club leads the Scottish Premiership by three points. They travel to face Motherwell on Sunday before a midweek fixture against Ross County. The busy schedule continues with a Scottish Cup tie at Dundee United on March 8, followed by a meeting with Rangers at Ibrox on March 15.
Midfielder Callum McGregor remains a doubt for the Motherwell match after sustaining a calf injury during the second half in Amsterdam, as reported by STV News. Celtic have won 20 of their 27 league matches this season. The squad returns to Lennoxtown on Friday to begin preparations for the domestic run-in.
