Celtic to welcome back Izaguirre for Old Firm derby

Celtic will regain the services of reigning SPL Player of the Year Emilio Izaguirre for the festive season's Old Firm clash with Rangers.

The Honduran left-back has been sidelined since early August after sustaining a broken leg against Aberdeen but it is believed he could be fit to take on the reigning champions at Parkhead on December 28.

Izaguirre is expected to be back in full training within the next week-and-a-half and should be at full fitness when the league-leading 'Gers come to town in what is again shaping as an epic battle between the Glasgow giants.
