Scott Brown and Barry Robson are back in full training at Celtic but will not be considered for tomorrow night’s Champions League clash against Dinamo Moscow.
Both midfielders have missed the Hoops’ pre-season games as they recover from their respective ankle and groin injuries.
The two Scotland internationals took a huge step to becoming available for selection by joining in with the rest of the squad at the club’s Lennoxtown training base this week but manager Tony Mowbray will not risk them in the first leg of the third qualifying round tie against the Russians.
Provisional squad: Boruc, Hinkel, Caddis, Fox, Naylor, O’Dea, Caldwell, Loovens, Maloney, McGeady, Mizuno, Flood, Donati, Crosas, N’Guemo, McDonald, Fortune, McCourt, Samaras, Killen, Zaluska.
