Kyogo Furuhashi is fit and available for tomorrow’s SPFL clash at home to Aberdeen.
The striker only lasted 14 minutes of last Saturday’s Scottish Cup tie against St Mirren, leaving the pitch with a shoulder injury to be replaced by Liel Abada.
Kyogo also suffered a shoulder injury in the September Glasgow derby prompting concerns that there may be an underlying issue.
The striker appeared in a couple of pictures from today’s training sessions at Lennoxtown, covering today’s media conference STV report Ange Postecoglou saying:
Kyogo is fine, he trained today and had a session yesterday, so he is good to go. Turnbull took a bit of a knock last week so he will miss the game and everyone else is ok.
Turnbull started the game against St Mirren but never looked as sharp as he had in recent substitute appearances.
With Aaron Mooy forcing his way into the starting XI Matt O’Riley has been relegated to the bench with Tomoki Iwata the next midfielder in line for a place.
