The 33-year-old has played two reserve team games and was included in Declan Caddell's senior squad on Tuesday night
Crusaders boss Declan Caddell welcomed Jimmy Callacher back to his first-team squad on Tuesday night, but it might be some time before fans see the defender in first-team action.
The 33-year-old is closing in on a senior return, some 13 months on from picking up the serious knee injury in a game against Newry City. It came just three months after joining the Crues from Linfield in a two-year deal. Read more: Inside the family life of Joe Brolly after birth of Derry GAA legend's daughter
Explaining the former Linfield man's inclusion on Tuesday night, Caddell said: "Jimmy is good and has been working hard the past five months or so. He has been in full training now for the past six weeks and played two reserve games; two 45 minutes. "That's why I had him in the squad last night. That leadership and direction you get from Jimmy. His experience is like gold dust in the Irish League. And having him around the pitch and players is a bonus.
