One player out but possibly three back for Celtic's semi-final on Sunday
Mo Bangura has suffered a setback in his recovery from knee trouble which has interrupted his Celtic career. The Sierra Leone international was expected to be out for only a short spell at the start of January after it emerged he had suffered another injury, having already missed a chunk of the season. However, Celtic have reported that Bangura, who has yet to score since his summer move from Swedish side AIK, is not recovering as well as was hoped. Bangura has "tweaked" his right knee once more, with a specialist due to check out the injury next week.
Celtic also announced that Daniel Majstorovic is available for weekend's Scottish Communities League Cup semi-final against Falkirk at Hampden. The defender returned to training following the fractured cheekbone suffered against St Johnstone last month. Manager Neil Lennon's options will also be increased ahead of the weekend when new-recruit defender Mikael Lustig and winger Paddy McCourt return to training after their respective thigh and foot injuries.
