The Celtic captain trained today having missed several weeks after suffering an achilles injury.
Celtic boss Brendan Rodgers insists a late call will be made on Callum McGregor's availability for Sunday's mammoth Old Firm meeting with Rangers.
Speaking to Sky Sports, he said: "He has just got one more day to get through. He has made a remarkable recovery. He is obviously not match fit because he has been out for a while but we are hoping that he will be involved in the game. "We wouldn't risk him for this game. We have to be sensible. It's not like its a cup final as there are still more games to come which we hope will all be important. But we have a sense where he is at and can take it from there."
He added: "We went there early in the season and won. It was a great lesson for not only in football but in life because when we arrived for that game we had been written off individually and collectively.
