Moi Elyounoussi will return to training on Saturday.
The winger has only made two appearances since Celtic’s stunning away win over Lazio in November with a foot injury cutting him down in his prime.
With Mikey Johnston out long term the return of Elyounoussi is badly needed with Scott Sinclair sold and Lewis Morgan expected to join Inter Miami.
The on-loan Southampton winger picked up the October Player of the Month Award, settling instantly into the Celtic side with driving wing play and a genuine goal threat.

Elyounoussi is going to come back into training on Saturday which is good use but again he’s been out for quite some considerable period of time so Sunday will be too soon for him.
There has been speculation about Celtic signing the Norwegian international on a permanent basis but that seems premature after almost three months out injured.
Elyounoussi first caught the eye playing for Molde in the Europa League with Celtic’s match away to Copenhagen on February 20 probably a realistic date for him to be back to full match fitness.
