Celtic defender Stephen Welsh is available for selection this evening against Aberdeen and, as to be expected, the injury update has gone down well with plenty of Hoops supporters.
According to Sky Sports reporter Anthony Joseph, the 21-year-old has resumed full training following an ankle injury and is available for selection at Parkhead.

Welsh, who has made nine appearances in all competitions this season (six in the Premiership and three in the Europa League), was stretchered off against St Mirren last week.
Thankfully he escaped any serious damage, with no fractures or ligament damage on show following a scan. Shane Duffy filled in for Welsh in the 2-1 win against St Johnstone on the weekend, but it seems as if the youngster could come back into Neil Lennon’s starting line-up against The Dons.
Here is what these Celtic fans had to say about Joseph’s Twitter update on Tuesday evening, with one describing the news as ‘superb’.
Twitter: @AnthonyRJoseph Great news! He’s barely put a foot wrong (@LaineyDonnel)

Hopefully he can get a good solid run of games between now and the end of the season
