Celtic defender Auston Trusty has returned to training after an injury layoff with plantar fasciitis. The USA Internationalist has been sidelined with the foot injury for the last few weeks but posted a positive message on Twitter as he returned to training at Lennoxtown.
The former Sheffield United defender posted an update on Tuesday evening ahead of Celtic’s Europa League meeting with Portuguese side Braga.

Trusty said that he wanted to ‘pick up where he left off’ as he looks to reclaim that starting role from Liam Scales. Trusty impressed in pre-season and his absences caused concern amongst supporters but it soon became clear that he had suffered an injury.
Trusty was very impressive in the UCL last season partnering beside CCV. The USA pair will have the World Cup next season in their plans and that Wilmer require them both to play regularly to catch the attention to Mauricio Pochettino.
