Ahead of the Scottish Premiership game against St Mirren on Wednesday night, Celtic boss Lennon stated that the 22-year-old Ivorian had missed a large part of the training session but should be OK for the trip to Paisley.

He said: "Soro had a prang in his car this morning due to the adverse weather conditions. He looks OK. So we are just checking on him, making sure he is alright. He missed a large part of the session.

"Apart from that James Forrest is back in training but obviously tomorrow night is too soon for him. So that's a welcome boost to the squad.

"Shane Duffy had a bit of a bug in the last couple of days but trained today so he should be available for selection. Ryan Christie is fit and back in the squad as well."
