Aberdeen winger Jonny Hayes to take on Celtic despite dog bite
ByPA Sport
Aberdeen winger Jonny Hayes will play against Ladbrokes Premiership leaders Celtic despite his preparations for Wednesday's game being affected by a dog bite.
The Irishman suffered a 2cm gash after being attacked while walking his own dog and his hand is heavily bandaged.
Dons boss Derek McInnes said: "Jonny has been bitten by a dog and there's no truth in the rumour that the dog died instantly. Of all the players to bite, it would be a foolish mistake to bite Jonny. It must have been a greyhound to catch him.
"It was a nasty bite, it really was, and it has affected his training going into this game, but thankfully he'll be good to go tomorrow night."
