Celtic's Johnston Resumes Training, Araujo's Season May Be Over
Alistair Johnston, who has been sidelined since October with a hamstring issue, has rejoined his Celtic teammates in training ahead of their Scottish Premiership match against St Mirren. However, Julian Araujo's time at Celtic may be coming to an end, as the on-loan defender has suffered a setback in his recovery from a thigh problem. According to Celtic manager Martin O'Neill, Araujo's injury could keep him out for the remainder of the season. O'Neill expressed his enthusiasm about Johnston's return to training, stating that the player's progress is encouraging and that he may be available for selection soon. The Celtic boss also provided updates on other injured players, including Colby Donovan, who will miss the upcoming match due to a hamstring injury. Additionally, O'Neill welcomed the return of the Green Brigade, Celtic's ultras group, after a five-month ban was lifted. The manager acknowledged the importance of the group's vocal support and expressed his hope that their return would provide a boost to the team as they continue their pursuit of Hearts and Rangers in the title race.
