The 27-year-old defender was sent to train with the under-20s after claiming an injury led to him missing the Champions League qualifying defeat at AEK Athens last Tuesday while Rodgers claimed he was fit.

Boyata returned to training with his team-mates this week but missed the trip to Lithuania along with fellow defender Jack Hendry and French striker Odsonne Edouard. (The Scotsman)
