Ange Postecoglou has provided a massive Celtic injury update ahead of Sunday’s Scottish Cup semi final that will provide a huge boost to his side.
At the weekend, none of Jota, Reo Hatate or Liel Abada were available although they have all returned to training this week.
According to Postecoglou, if the trio are able to make it through the training week, they will be well in contention for the weekend:

Undoubtedly, this is a monumental boost for Celtic going into the colossal clash on Sunday.
Jota and Hatate in particular were noticeably missed in the Motherwell game at the weekend with the Hoops lacking drive and creativity at times.
Their presences would be greatly welcomed back ahead of the Glasgow derby, a game in which a Celtic win would make them odds on favourites for the treble.
The Hoops have to stay focused, though, and not think too much about the overall consequences of a win on Sunday and rather just hone in on the game itself and trying to win.
