Celtic handed huge Old Firm boost as fresh update emerges, Postecoglou will be buzzing - opinion

Ange Postecoglou’s Celtic side have been handed a huge boost ahead of their upcoming Scottish Premiership Old Firm clash.

That’s according to a claim made by Rob Page (via STV News), who suggested that, after playing the full 90 minutes in Wales’ 2-1 World Cup qualifying semi-final victory over Austria last week, Aaron Ramsey is now a doubt for the Czech Republic friendly on Tuesday – as the midfielder appeared to be struggling with a muscle injury following the win at the Cardiff City Stadium.

Speaking about the current condition of the 31-year-old, the Wales manager said: “[Gareth Bale and Ramsey] both struggled towards the end of the game. You could see both of them were holding their groins and hamstrings.

“They both had a tough 95 minutes. But we’ll have another night and we’ll make that decision in the morning whether we involve them in the 23. They’re not going to start.”

While it is true that, since his move from Juventus to Glasgow Rangers in the January transfer window, Ramsey has somewhat struggled to reach a decent level of match fitness – so far playing just 113 minutes of Premiership football – it is undeniable that, on his day, the Welshman is an extremely dangerous player.

Indeed, over his 371 appearances for Arsenal, the £4.5m-rated playmaker scored an incredibly impressive 65 goals and registered 65 assists, with arguably the 31-year-old’s best campaign for the Gunners coming back in 2013/13, when he bagged 16 goals and provided ten assists over just 36 fixtures in all competitions.

As such, while the man who is reported to be earning around £45k-per-week at Ibrox is yet to demonstrate this level of form at Gers, following the news that Alfredo Morelos is now a doubt for Sunday’s season-defining Old
