Celtic confirms Jota's return to action with bounce game scheduled

Celtic FC has confirmed that Jota will make his first appearance in 18 months during a bounce game against Falkirk. The player has been sidelined since suffering a serious ACL injury in April 2024. His return comes at a challenging time for Celtic, following a disappointing run of three consecutive losses, including two against rivals Rangers. While Jota's return is welcomed, speculation surrounds the team's coaching under Martin O'Neill, as concerns about player morale have been raised. The bounce game presents an opportunity to gauge Jota's recovery and impact on the squad as they look to improve their performance.
