Christopher Jullien

It is not hard to see why there is a lot of anticipation around Christopher Jullien’s return to the pitch for Celtic. The French defender was a regular part of the club’s starting XI a few years back but has struggled with injury problems since then, which have kept him out of action. He has now made his comeback to training although he is yet to feature in Ange Postecoglou’s side and it remains to be seen when that does end up happening.

Christopher Jullien was one of Celtic’s best players before he picked up a long-term injury late in 2020. And it is safe to say that the club have felt his absence since then, struggling at the back for a while. On the other hand, the French defender has not been able to return to competitive action and did not make a single appearance in 2021, and is yet to make an appearance this year either.

Christopher Jullien was considered the best defender at Celtic before he picked up a long-term injury last season. Initially, it had been thought that he would be out of action for four months, which was a huge blow in itself. But since then, the defender has appeared to suffer several setbacks and it has been more than a year since he last played for the Hoops. In fact, he did not make a single appearance in 2021.

Christopher Jullien’s long-term injury has been one of Celtic’s biggest problems in recent times and has left them a man in short in the heart of their defence. The Frenchman had picked up the problem last season and it was originally believed that he could be out of action for around four months. It is safe to say that it has been much longer than that and he will finish 2021 without making a single appearance for the Hoops.

Celtic manager Ange Postecoglou is hopeful Christopher Jullien will be ready to return soon after the winter break following a lengthy spell on the sidelines. Celtic are looking to tie up a number of early January signings but their squad is also set to be strengthened by the return to fitness of a number of players.

There is no doubt that Celtic have missed Christopher Jullien’s presence for a long time now. The French defender had his fair share of fitness issues at the start of last season but had made a return to the pitch and looked good, only to return to the sidelines after picking up another injury. It was initially expected to keep him out of action for around four months but it has been much longer than that, and he has not made a single appearance this year.

It is safe to say that Celtic have missed Christopher Jullien’s presence in the heart of their defence over the past several months. In fact, the Frenchman has not made a single appearance for the club this year having picked up injury against Dundee United at the end of last year.

Celtic have certainly felt the absence of Christopher Jullien in recent times. The French defender spent the majority of the previous campaign dealing with injuries and has not yet made an appearance this season.

The 28-year-old defender has been back at Celtic Park watching his teammates but Ange Postecoglou admitted last month that the player was still months away from returning to action as he is currently undergoing rehabilitation treatment. However, hopefully, the inclusion in Celtic’s Europa League squad means that the player will imminently be available for Postecoglou. The player enjoyed the tournament in his first season, scoring a late winner as Celtic floored Lazio at Celtic Park.

Christopher Jullien returned to Celtic Park for the first time this year in a positive mode for next season. The 28-year-old French defender has been out of action since he sustained an injury by crashing into a post against Dundee United in the final game of 2020. Since then Neil...
