Frozen-out Logan Bailly is poised to make a Celtic comeback.
The Belgian keeper hasn’t figured in a competitive game this season but is likely to be promoted as stand-by to Craig Gordon for the rest of the campaign.
Bailly, 31, signed by Ronny Deila from OHL Leuven in 2015, will get the call as Dorus de Vries requires surgery on an ankle problem.
The Dutch veteran, who started five games following his arrival from Championship side Nottingham Forest in August, before losing out to Gordon at the end of September, now looks to be sidelined for the rest of the season.

The former Borussia Monchengladbach star played in the pre-season friendly 1-0 win over Sturm Graz in Austria in July before injuring an ankle in training.
Bailly’s setback forced him to sit out the start of the season at Celtic.
