O'Neill insists frozen-out midfielder can still have Celtic future - gossip

Celtic manager Martin O'Neill has stated that midfielder Luke McCowan, who has been frozen out of the first team, still has a future at the club. The decision to not send off Rangers defender James Penrice in last Saturday's Premier Sports Cup semi-final against Aberdeen has drawn criticism from pundits and former referees. Celtic may face a league fixture switch following Rangers' victory over Aberdeen to reach the final of the match next month.

Haissem Hassan is focused on proving his worth by scoring and assisting goals in a Celtic jersey. Rangers striker Ryan Nairney has told Rangers fans "we're coming back here to win it" after netting the only goal in the League Cup semi-final win over Aberdeen. St Johnstone manager Simo Valakari praised his side's heroic point at Kilmarnock, where they came back twice in a 2-2 draw at Rugby Park.

Manchester United have reportedly enquired about potential transfer target Jack Toney, while Swansea City's Stewart finds himself in a rules limbo situation.
