Palma notched his first Celtic goal against Kilmarnock after big moment against Lazio was cut short thanks to VAR.
Luis Palma has been tipped to open the floodgates for budding Honduran stars with his burgeoning talent.
Although his Champions League effort against Lazio was ruled out for offside by VAR, the attacker’s terrific hit against Kilmarnock made it two in two Premiership games before he headed off to join Honduras on national-team duty. Palma is now back and a strong contender to start against Hearts at Tynecastle on Sunday as Rodgers’ men aim to extend their winning run in the Premiership and cement their position at the top of the table.
“I see someone who is capable of coming inside and linking the game as opposed to having to rely purely on sheer pace. He’s not slow by any means but I’m not sure he’s lightning quick. Palma looks like a clever footballer, someone who has an intelligent brain and can link-up with his team-mates in attacking areas.
Emilio Izaguirre was also an impressive contributor at Celtic after being signed by Neil Lennon in 2010, with his two spells at the club covering almost a decade. Agent Paulo Hernandez was responsible for helping the left-back switch to Scotland and also played a key role in the arrival of Palma. Join Record Sport's Celtic WhatsApp community!
