Kyogo hands Celtic major Rangers Viaplay Cup final injury boost as talisman trains after shoulder injury

Kyogo has handed Celtic boss Ange Postecoglou a major Viaplay Cup final boost after returning to training ahead of Saturday's clash against Aberdeen.

The Japan star was forced off early in the Scottish Cup fifth round win over St Mirren at Parkhead last weekend with a shoulder injury. That was a major worry for Postecoglou and the Hoops fans with the 28-year-old bagging 22 goals this season.

However, said Kyogo looks set to be fit to take his place at Hampden on February 26 after he was pictured in training ahead of the Scottish Premiership champions facing Aberdeen in the league on Saturday. He said. Kyogo was sidelined for the two games before last season's League Cup final against Hibs but recovered in time to inspire his side to victory with a brace.
