Celtic midfielder Ryan Christie should be back available for selection soon.
Celtic fans have been left delighted after Brendan Rodgers confirmed that Ryan Christie is edging closer to a return.
Christie has been one of Celtic’s stars of the season, but he has picked up an injury and missed the Bhoys’ game against Hibernian at the weekend.
Celtic were beaten 2-0 on Sunday, with Rodgers’ side well below their best.
But Rodgers feels that Christie will be back sooner rather than later, which is good news for his side.
“Ryan Christie is back running on the field and is pushing himself to getting back playing,” Rodgers said. “It’s great news for us.”
Celtic fans were overjoyed with the comments, as they felt Christie was a big miss at the weekend.
Celtic just never got going at the weekend, as Hibs picked up an unexpected victory.
The Bhoys have now slipped down to third in the Scottish Premiership table, with Rangers and Kilmarnock both moving ahead of them.
Celtic are next in action on Wednesday, when they take on Motherwell and if Christie can be involved it would be a huge boost for the Glasgow side.
