Kieran Tierney and Kasper Hogh return to Celtic training sessions

Celtic players Kieran Tierney and Kasper Hogh returned to training on Tuesday following recent injury absences. Both players missed recent matches against Aberdeen, St Mirren, and Falkirk during their recovery. Their return to the pitch at Lennoxtown provides manager Martin O’Neill with more options ahead of Wednesday night’s match against St Johnstone at McDiarmid Park. While Tierney and Hogh were pictured in training, it remains unclear if either will start against the Perth side. Meanwhile, Alistair Johnston also appeared on the training pitch to continue his rehabilitation from a hamstring injury, though his return to competitive play is expected to take more time. O’Neill has relied on Liam Scales, Jordan Lotomba, and Landon Emenalo at left-back, while Camilo Duran has filled the center-forward role during Hogh's absence.
