Tom Rogic is expected to be involved in Tuesday’s friendly against Paris Saint Germain.
The midfielder failed to make the bench for the matches against Nice and Lyon but looks like featuring in the final match of the three game French trip.
Ryan Christie and Olivier Ntcham both played in the ‘Rogic role’ behind the main striker but the return of the Australian will give Neil Lennon greater options and flexibility across the middle of the park.
Hatem Abd Elhamed and Patryk Klimala both took heavy knocks in the 2-1 defeat from Lyon but managed to play on and will be monitored over the next 48 hours.
Covering the injury situation the Daily Record reports:
Lennon revealed Tom Rogic could face PSG in Paris on Tuesday after the Aussie sat out the Nice and Lyon games with an injured ankle.
But Mikey Johnston has suffered another blow and could require surgery to a niggling calf problem while Vakoun Bayo is also home.
Lennon said: “Mikey’s got an injury and he’s back home. He has been having problems with his calves and he needs to see a specialist.
“He’s not had much luck. It’s been a bit stop start but with his age and going through the maturation process he’s picking up injuries. It’s frustrating for him and frustrating for us. Bayo has an injury too and he is getting treatment.”
Lennon got a scare when Dembele went in late on Hatem Elhamed but the full back is expected to be fit to take on Neymar and the PSG superstars in the French capital.
The Celtic boss made 10 changes on the hour mark tonight with his recognised first XI getting another 30 minutes under their belt.
With four minutes left to play Moi Elyounoussi scored a brilliant goal to bring Celtic back into the match but despite the time taken up by substitutions no stoppage time was played by the French referee.
