Keeper returns for Celtic
Celtic received a major boost ahead of their Champions League tie with Juventus as goalkeeper Fraser Forster returned to full training.
| "We felt it would be better to get a good week of work before the Champions League" - Neil Lennon |
Forster has missed the last five games with a neck injury, including the weekend Scottish Cup fifth round victory at first division Raith Rovers.
But he was expected to return for the forthcoming visit to second-placed Inverness Caledonian Thistle on Saturday lunchtime, just three days prior to the much-anticipated arrival of the Turin giants.
"Fraser should be OK for next weekend. The plan is to get him a game before Juventus," manager Neil Lennon told The Scotsman. "He's itching to play and could have gone away with England, but we felt it would be better to get a good week of work before the Champions League."
Meanwhile, Lennon is also due to check on the fitness of both Emilio Izaguirre and Georgios Samaras.
