Celtic’s board backed head coach Brendan Rodgers during the summer transfer window, resulting in a club record transfer for the Northern Irishman.
The Hoops paid a club record £11 million to recruit Arne Engels from Augsburg, bolstering their midfield options.
Adam Idah, Paulo Bernardo, Viljami Sinisalo, Kasper Schmeichel, Alex Valle, Auston Trusty, and Luke McCowan were also added to the roster to provide depth.
The new recruits have pushed several players to the edges of the group, including Luis Palma, who has struggled for playing time this season.
Luis Palma’s struggles at Celtic
The Honduran international joined the Scottish giants from Greek side Aris in the summer of 2023, where he had a promising rookie season.
Palma performed well in the 2023/24 Scottish Premiership season, scoring seven goals and assisting nine times over 28 games.
The 24-year-old forward has only played 37 minutes in the league this season and has yet to convince Rodgers that he is worthy of starting over Daizen Maeda on the left flank.
The Honduran star, who scored two goals in the Champions League last season, has the potential to be a crucial player for the Hoops if he can regain his prior form, suggesting a future at Parkhead.
Rodgers should get rid of central midfielder Odin Thiago Holm, who has played even fewer minutes than Palma.
