    Luis Palma has a number of clubs interested in his services ahead of the January transfer window.

    The Honduran winger’s future at Celtic is up in the air having not played since the end of October


    His minutes on the pitch – from eight outings this term – have been limited and reduced to cameos from the bench and that has alerted clubs to his potential availability.

    Manager Brendan Rodgers recently accepted that the 24-year-old has had a difficult time with other players ahead of him in the pecking order



    Rodgers also offered a clear message to Palma as he insisted the playmaker is still “part of the squad” until anything changes.


    But the lack of playing time seems to hint at an eventual, inevitable exit for the attacker who has hit 10 goals and provided the same number of assists from 43 total appearances in green and white.

    Now 67 Hail Hail can exclusively reveal that two MLS clubs are considering a move for the wide man.


    It is understood that both Atlanta United and Orlando City have Palma written on their shortlist of names of potential signings.


    The pair of clubs are keen on Palma but have a number of other players also listed as they consider their options.

    It is believed there has not yet been any official approach from either club for the player.


    Atlanta United and Orlando City are interested in Luis Palma
    Celtic have also not yet been contacted about any potential deal but their resolve could be tested next month should they wish to hold out for a decent fee for their man.

    Palma is contracted at Parkhead until 2028 which would force any possible buyers to fork out for the international.


    It also leaves Celts in a strong bargaining position should Rodgers be willing to sanction any sort of deal.

    Best he moves on. Clearly has some talent but just doesn't work hard enough.

    Still helped us last year during those first 6 months, and he's been excellent for Honduras.

    I think we could end up making a small profit on him, I think we bought him for around £3.5 million, no reason we couldn't sell him for £5 million imo.

    Be buzzing for him to get move to MLS, seems like the perfect fit for him. Good guy by all accounts but just not been able to fit in here football wise.

    I can tell you from personally having met him he is very much a class act. So I have nothing but respect and best wishes for him. Hopefully a good move works out for him come January with MLS seemingly like a good fit and a likely destination given their season begins in spring. Will be interesting if this move does happen to see what kind of fee we get. Probably still should make a bit of a profit on the 3.5m or so we paid for him.

    Forreat will be back end of January. No point in denying a player a move for 6 months because someone is injured for a few weeks. Let him go toward the end of January

    Been linked with a few.

    Palma will be away. Not good for him or us the situation he's in.

    * hate this *. Sooner he * off the better, he's not a fraction of the player the gormless looking * thinks he is.

    Hes pish. Teams figure him out after 1 attack. Predictable slow pish. Has a decent cross and that's it.

    The only thing he has in his favour is that he's been thrown in out of nowhere, and he was better than Yang, but that's a low bar. I don't want to see him play for us again. He's rubbish.

    * almighty he's as horrific a winger ive ever seen at us..

    Watching him try and beat a man must be what it's like taking your last breath..

    That one (I know was multiple) he tried and failed to beat Strain late on and fouled him was comically bad..

    He should never ever play for us again. He is absolutely rotten.

    Sums him up. The fact that he wasn't our worst wide player says it all about today.
