CELTIC manager Brendan Rodgers has revealed that Moussa Dembele will be in the squad to face Ross County in the Ladbrokes Premiership this weekend.
The French striker has been out of action with a hamstring injury since starring in a Champions League qualifier against Linfield in July.
However, the 21-year-old returned to training last week and boss Rodgers revealed on Thursday that he will make the matchday squad for Saturday's visit of the Staggies.

"Moussa looks good," said the Northern Irishman.
"He's been training now for a few weeks. He'll be in the squad."
Defender Dedryck Boyata has also missed the opening stages of the season through injury and Rodgers admitted he is unsure whether the Belgian will recover in time for Saturday.
"We'll assess over the next 24 hours whether he's going to be available or not," he explained.
