Lennon wants Forrest fit for Juventus tie

Celtic manager Neil Lennon will throw James Forrest right back into action this weekend against Inverness in the hope of unleashing him against Juventus.

The 21-year-old talent made his first appearance for the Glasgow giants since December in Sunday's William Scottish Cup fifth-round win over Raith Rovers.

The winger struck the second goal in the Hoops' 3-0 success at Stark's Park, and impressed his boss so much with his pace, intent and fitness following a hamstring problem that he will now be cast back into the Celtic line-up for this weekend's trip to Inverness in the Clydesdale Bank Premier League.
