Josip Juranovic has recovered from injury and is in the Croatia squad for the Nations League. 

The defender was injured during the Scottish Cup semi-final on April 17 and missed the last seven matches of the season. 

Ange Postecoglou hinted that Juranovic could return for the final match of the season against Motherwell a month later but that failed to happen. 

Croatia face Austria and France at home before taking on Denmark on June 10. Having qualified directly for the World Cup Finals by topping their group there is plenty of competition for places in Zlatko Dalic’s squad for Qatar. 

After undergoing transfers in each of the last two summers, from Hadjuk Split and Legia Warsaw, Celtic fans will be hoping that the 26-year-old will be staying put this summer with Champions League football ahead of the World Cup Finals. 

Veteran midfielder Luca Modric captains the squad with another Champions League winners medal on his CV.
