Both Kelechi Iheanacho and Marcelo Saracchi have returned to training. Saracchi, 27, suffered a hamstring injury during the first half of the match against Kilmarnock before the international break.
However, he has bounced back swiftly and was seen participating in full training at Parkhead before the club’s journey to the Netherlands. Sky Sports captured the Uruguayan in action.

Saracchi joined Celtic from the Argentinian club Boca Juniors in the latter stages of the summer transfer window.
He made his debut against Rangers at Ibrox in August and has since accumulated nine appearances in all competitions for the club.
The former River Plate, RB Leipzig, Galatasaray, and Levante player competes with Kieran Tierney for the left-back position at the club.
Saracchi’s return is a further boost for Martin O’Neill’s side, following Kelechi Iheanacho’s reintegration into the squad.
Iheanacho has been reintegrated ahead of the Feyenoord clash.
Elsewhere, Wilfied Nancy is ‘on the verge’ of becoming Celtic’s new manager, according to a new report.
The 48-year-old Columbus Crew head coach has been heavily linked with the vacant position for a number of weeks, following Brendan Rodgers ‘ shock resignation over a month ago.
Now, it would seem that the Frenchman’s move to Scotland is getting closer, thanks to Fabrizio Romano’s latest update.
The journalist, who has 26 million followers on X , took to social media to provide an update. In full, Romano posted, “Wilfried Nancy, on the verge of becoming new Celtic manager as deal is almost agreed.
“Final details to be sorted, and then the contract will be sealed.”
Nancy has been in charge of Columbus Crew since 2022, following his spell at CF Montreal. To date, he has won two major honours at the Ohio-based MLS club, including the MLS Cup and the Leagues Cup in 2023 and 2024, respectively.
