'I may have played my last game': Celtic keeper Kasper Schmeichel reveals injury requires two surgeries

Celtic keeper Kasper Schmeichel admits he may have played his last game as he revealed an injury requires two surgeries.

The Hoops stopper has been out of the last few games with an injury, with understudy Viljami Sinisalo starting between the posts for Martin O’Neill’s side.

O’Neill revealed prior to the Old Firm derby that Schmeichel had received an injection for his injury.

But the 39-year-old admits his career could be over as he faces a lengthy period on the sidelines.

He told CBS Sports Golazo: “I was at a specialist yesterday, I’m going to need two surgeries to fix my shoulder.

“I’ve torn my bicep, rotator cuff, labrum and dislocated my shoulder…everything is kind of gone…it’s looking like ten to 12 months of rehab.

“You don’t know how to react to this. I could have potentially played my last-ever football game. That kind of thought is devastating. It’s very hard to wrap my head around at the moment.”

The veteran keeper says he has a first round of surgery next Friday.

He added: “I’m going to give it everything to see if I can get back, it would be one of the greatest feats of my career to come back.”
