The Parkhead winger is set to be available for the title race run-in despite a call up for his country.
Emerging Celtic star Yang will is set to stick with his club with South Korea star unlikely to be part of his nation's U-23 squad in their pursuit to qualify for the Olympics.
And the Parkhead winger is set to be available for the title race run-in as the Asian qualifying – set over for four games – does not fall under FIFA's international calendar. That means it's a long shot for Yang to be heading away after already competing at a disastrous Asian Cup for his nation. And honest South Korea boss Hwang Sun-hong admitted he is looking for alternative solutions. He stated: “I will have a final meeting with the staff, but this is a difficult part. "We need to come up with an alternative. I am also thinking about plan B." Brendan Rodgers hailed the development of a player who has flashed glimpses of his potential and the Irishman is certain the 21-year-old can have a major impact in the final weeks of the season.
Meanwhile, the champions have announced their eight-man player of the year shortlist for the club's first ever awards show at the Hydro. Up to 11,000 punters have the chance to attend and it will be between an octet of candidates. Callum McGregor, Matt O'Riley, Daizen Maeda, Kyogo, Alistair Johnston, Liam Scales, Greg Taylor and Joe Hart are all in the running.
Captain McGregor is aiming to be the first player in club history to win the award three times as he currently sits alongside Parkhead legend Scott Brown on two awards each.
