Alistair Johnston Returns to Training, Julian Araujo's Celtic Career May Be Over

Celtic has welcomed back long-term absentee Alistair Johnston to training, while loan defender Julian Araujo may have played his final game for the club. Johnston, who has been sidelined with a hamstring injury since October, rejoined his teammates at the Lennoxtown training complex ahead of the upcoming Scottish Premiership match against St Mirren. Meanwhile, Araujo, who is recovering from a thigh problem, has suffered a setback, which may rule him out for the remainder of the season. Celtic manager Martin O'Neill expressed his concerns about Araujo's injury, stating that the defender may not feature for the club again. O'Neill also provided updates on other injured players, including right-back Colby Donovan, who will miss the upcoming match with a hamstring injury. The Celtic boss was pleased to see the return of the Green Brigade, the team's ultras group, after a five-month ban was lifted. With the Scottish Premiership title race heating up, O'Neill acknowledged that Hearts are in a strong position, but remained optimistic about Celtic's chances.
