Celtic boss Ange Postecoglou is ready to throw Josip Juranovic straight into the Old Firm derby at Ibrox after his World Cup exploits.
The Croatia defender, whose future is uncertain at Parkhead following his performances in Qatar, is set to start against Rangers. Juranovic was a key player for the Croats as they reached the World Cup semi-finals and won the bronze medal.
He has been constantly linked with a move away from Celtic since his return, with several top clubs in Europe showing an interest. But, even with new right-back Alistair Johnston now available, Postecoglou has hinted that Juranovic will get the nod for Ibrox, with Reo Hatate moving back into midfield. He made his debut there in the fixture last August and his gaffer said: “Josip was ready on Wednesday night against Hibs but had only been with us for a day. I felt it would have been a bit unfair just to throw him in.
