Luis Palma played 41 matches for Celtic last season, a much used member of Brendan Rodgers’ squad. Playing on the left wing, he scored 12 goals and added 13 assists.

This season, however, he’s only managed 106 minutes and worry is growing in Honduras. The Celtic player missed the last international break, with the plan being he’d concentrate on his form and Celtic situation and fight his way back into Rodgers’ side.

He scored a hat-trick in a friendly, and that left the Honduran media believing he’d get minutes against Aberdeen and could even get a start. In reality, he didn’t even come off the bench in the 2-2 draw.

Monday’s edition of Honduran newspaper Diario El Heraldo states Palma ‘continues to be marginalised’ at Celtic, after all the hope following the hat-trick. La Prensa also cover the situation, and Diez.hn call it a ‘new disappointment’ for Palma.

Deportes TVC say his decision to stay at Celtic during the international break ‘seems to have been in vain’, with a general Honduran feeling of it being a wasted couple of weeks when he could have been with the national team.
