Patrick Roberts is back in contention to play against St Mirren on Sunday.

The winger has been out of action for a month after picking up a hamstring injury in the 5-2 win away to St Johnstone.

With James Forrest out injured Roberts return to full fitness is a big boost for Celtic as they look to reinforce their treble hopes.

Roberts was in outstanding form when he picked up the injury at St Johnstone, playing a major part in that victory.

With three months left on his loan deal the England youth internationalist will want to sign off in style although there is believed to be dialogue between Celtic and Manchester City about his future.

Another loan deal seems the most likely option for City to take but a substantial offer from Celtic could change their mind.

While on loan to Celtic Jason Denayer worked his way into the Belgian international squad but his value has fallen since leaving the hoops.

Celtic will be looking for an early decision about Roberts in order to have their strongest squad available for the July Champions League qualifiers.
