Leigh Griffiths has returned to full training at Lennoxtown.
The striker hasn’t played in a competitive match since the end of August when he got a 15 minute run out in the 3-1 win over Hearts.
A thigh strain and a virus has left Griffiths on the side-lines but after being confined to the gym he is now out working with his team-mates.
With Vakoun Bayo facing a spell on the side-lines through injury Neil Lennon is short on striking options with Odsonne Edouard starting every match at the moment.
Celtic’s Betfred Cup semi-final against Hibs at Hampden tomorrow looks like coming too early for Griffiths to feature but next Sunday’s SPFL match at home to Motherwell should be a realistic target.
After missing the second half of last season due to personal reasons Griffiths returned to pre-season training and scored against Nomme Kalju, St Johnstone and Motherwell in the early weeks of the season.
Scott Bain was also pictured at training.
