Image for Neil Lennon reveals massive striker boost for Derby clash

Albian Ajeti is fit ad available for selection in tomorrow’s Glasgow derby.

The striker suffered a hamstring injury scoring against Hibs last month but the injury was caught early with Odsonne Edouard sent on as a substitute.

Ajeti missed the matches against Sarajevo and St Johnstone but after treatment at Lennoxtown during the international break has given Neil Lennon a timely boost.

In the absence of Ajeti, Leigh Griffiths and Patryk Klimala came off the bench to rescue full points against St Johnstone.

Like Ajeti the two goalscorers haven’t completed 90 minutes this season but with five substitutes now available all four strikers plus Moi Elyounoussi can be involved in tomorrow’s derby clash.

Celtic have been in contact with the medical authorities over Ryan Christie who was put in self-isolation after being identified as a close contact of Stuart Armstrong after the Southampton man was tested positive on international duty.
