Moussa Dembele will be in Celtic’s squad as the Parkhead side push for a domestic Treble.

The 20-year-old French striker has been declared fit for Celtic’s William Hill Scottish Cup final against Aberdeen this afternoon as the Hoops look to claim a clean sweep.

It is anticipated that Dembele, who has scored 32 goals this season, could start the game on the bench after not kicking a ball since the semi-final over Rangers in April.

Dembele tore his hamstring in the victory over the Ibrox side last month and the expectation was that the injury would keep him out of the final.

However, Brendan Rodgers has insisted that the player is fit and ready to take his place in today’s squad.

“Moussa is fine,” said Rodgers. “He will be in the squad. He has trained all week. He could have trained towards the end of last week but we he has been doing a lot of the individual work with the guys.

“So he has been out on the pitch for a few weeks but this was his first [full] week back in. Obviously he is not match or game fit having been out for a little period of time but he is certainly going to be able to be in the squad.

“He is fit. Of course it gives a positive attitude to the team to have him available. He is a top class striker. We have always adapted and coped with availability and non-availability. If he wasn’t fit we would have done the same again but thankfully he is fit, he is ready and willing to contribute.”

With Champions League qualifiers looming in July, the fear was that if Dembele was to break down at Hampden it would disrupt Celtic’s push to make it into the group stages next season.

However, Rodgers has been assured that the striker is fully ready to take to the park again, positive news as the Celtic manager looks to deliver the Scottish Cup to add to the League Cup and the League title.

With Rodgers maintaining that there is no gamble on the striker’s fitness, it remains to be seen what role he will play this afternoon.

“Of course you are testing everything beforehand,” he said. “That is the whole idea of when he is in the first or second stage of his rehab, that would be with the people measuring his multi-directional work.

“They ensure the hamstring is still strong. Of course you are never 100% but he only comes into his final stage of rehabilitation, with the group, if we think he is ready. He has trained all week with no reactions at all so if we need him, he will be there.”
