Callum McGregor is preparing to make a spectacular injury comeback against Rangers after returning to full training.

The 30-year-old captain has missed Celtic’s previous four games due to an Achilles injury and

has not played for Scotland in international competitions.

However, the important midfielder was spotted for the first time in training today at Lennoxtown as

Brendan Rodgers’ team completed their final session before Sunday’s historic game at Ibrox.

McGregor was photographed being put through his paces among his colleagues and now appears to be involved this weekend.

Brendan Rodgers will be ecstatic with the news, as he now has an almost fully fit squad to pick from.

Reo Hatate made his long-awaited return in last week’s 3-0 victory over Livingston, while Cameron Carter-Vickers also emerged unhurt.

Before the trip to Livi, Rodgers made it clear that he was not willing to risk McGregor on the artificial surface,

but he expressed confidence that the derby veteran would be available to face the Rangers.

When asked if he had a chance to face Philippe Clement’s team last week, Rodgers replied, “Yes, a very good chance.”

The Parkhead manager will provide an update on McGregor and the rest of the squad during this afternoon’s press conference.
