Julian Araujo has posted an update on his current rehabilitation process from an injury that has ended his season.

Martin O’Neill said it was unlikely that we would see Araujo again after he picked up a thigh injury, with the Mexican posting an emotional message to Celtic fans.

There is an outside chance of him being fit enough for the World Cup, and the full-back has posted an insight into his current recovery programme.

Will Celtic regret not inserting an option to buy in their Julian Araujo loan from Bournemouth?

In his latest update on his Instagram account, Araujo posted a picture of him working with Mexican sports therapist Erick Rodriguez.

Determined to be fit for selection for the World Cup, the Bournemouth loanee has picked one of the most respected figures in his field who has helped countless Mexican athletes recover from injury.

While Celtic fans won’t get the chance to see him in the green and white shirt this season, there is still hope that he will be able to feature on the international stage.

Celtic will never leave Julian Araujo’s heart

It seems that Celtic has had quite the chokehold on the 24-year-old, even if he may not be staying permanently.

Araujo was spotted watching Celtic from afar and the right-back has regularly waxed lyrical about how much he enjoyed his time in Glasgow.

His cousin hinted at Araujo staying long-term, but time will tell depending on what Bournemouth want to do with him and if they would price the Bhoys out of a move.
