Scott Brown has confirmed that one Celtic youngster on loan at Ayr United has been forced to return to the Hoops due to an injury.
Brown was entrusted with the development of Celtic academy talents Jude Bonnar and Kyle Ure.
The Celtic legend has been impressed by the Bhoys duo and they both have played a key part in Ayr’s Scottish Championship promotion clash.
Sadly, one has seen his move cut short due to an injury.

Kyle Ure returns to Celtic due to injury
Sadly for Ure, he will be spending a chunk of time out this season.
In an interview with the Ayr Advertiser, Brown confirmed that the young star would be out for as long as three months.
He said: “Kyle has been excellent since he walked through the door. “He’s a great lad who has a real understanding of the game for one so young.
“His drive and willingness to learn really sets him apart and he’s got a bright future. “Unfortunately he’s picked up a bad one and is back with Celtic now to begin his rehab.

“Hopefully he’ll be back performing like he was before long because he’s a top talent and one we’ll miss.
Ure has been compared to Callum McGregor in recent weeks and many believe that he could be the heir to the Celtic captain’s throne, however, this time out injured will not help at all.
As it is likely to be a three-month lay-off, there is a good chance that he will be able to return in time to play again this season.
