Midtjylland will be without midfielder Frank Onyeka for this evening's Champions League qualifier against Celtic after he joined Brentford in the Premier League.
The Nigerian completed his five-year deal at the newly promoted Bees this week.
Having played for FCM since 2017, Onyeka was a key asset for the Danes who will miss his talents at Parkhead.
It comes as manager Bo Henriksen suggested top players will not play at Celtic this evening amid interest from other clubs. Not unlike Celts they have a handful of wantaway stars and Henriksen won't pick them.
That means Jens-Lys Cajuste, Sory Kaba and Awer Mabil are doubtful, to add to Onyeka and fellow ace Alexander Scholz who left for Urawa Red Diamonds in Japan recently.
Ange Postecoglou, meanwhile, will have his own issues and decisions to make on players who may be available. Kris Ajer is wanted, ironically, by Brentford and is not in Celtic's squad. Nor is Olivier Ntcham.
Odsonne Edouard and Leigh Griffiths could feature.
Why are you making commenting on The Herald only available to subscribers?
It should have been a safe space for informed debate, somewhere for readers to discuss issues around the biggest stories of the day, but all too often the below the line comments on most websites have become bogged down by off-topic discussions and abuse.
heraldscotland.com is tackling this problem by allowing only subscribers to comment.
We are doing this to improve the experience for our loyal readers and we believe it will reduce the ability of trolls and troublemakers, who occasionally find their way onto our site, to abuse our journalists and readers. We also hope it will help the comments section fulfil its promise as a part of Scotland's conversation with itself.
We are lucky at The Herald. We are read by an informed, educated readership who can add their knowledge and insights to our stories.
That is invaluable.
We are making the subscriber-only change to support our valued readers, who tell us they don't want the site cluttered up with irrelevant comments, untruths and abuse.
In the past, the journalist’s job was to collect and distribute information to the audience. Technology means that readers can shape a discussion. We look forward to hearing from you on heraldscotland.com
