Palma’s days at Celtic are numbered

It’s clear that Palma’s days at Celtic are numbered and with significant interest from the likes of Italian side Genoa and Greek outfit Olympiacos plus numerous clubs from the MLS, it would probably be best to move the Honduran on sooner rather than later.

Celtic’s first pick winger are currently Nicolas Kuhn and Daizen Maeda with Yang and Palma as the two back-ups. Neither back-up has impressed this season and even at Ibrox on 2 January and with Celtic chasing the game, the manager didn’t look to Palma or Yang to influence the match.

Headlines in Honduras

Palma has been receiving widespread coverage in the media in his homeland with headlines like Palma ending his Celtic hell and so on, with frequent references to the Scottish weather.
