Christopher Jullien has posted a short injury update on Instagram for Celtic fans.
The towering Hoops defender was banned for four months with a knee injury following a win over Dundee United after Christmas.
And it seems unlikely that Celtic fans will see him again this season.
The great French center-back is still wearing a knee brace and has not yet removed his crutches, both visible in the photo he uploaded to social networks:

Several Celtic teammates liked the center, but one, Ismaila Soro, responded.
Soro’s response was posted in French, but said: “I know you will come back even more prepared and solid than before. Strength and courage, my soldier.
Even Celtic fans might admit it doesn’t make much sense to rush him back.
It would be different if Neil Lennon’s team had 10 games in a row, but the Bhoys, who have won the last nine Premiership titles, are behind the Rangers at the top by 18 points.
Steven Gerrard’s team only need four more victories to secure a 55 title at Ibrox and therefore it is not logical to try to speed up Jullien’s healing process.
