Celtic are believed to be looking to sign a winger in this winter transfer window while Luis Palma is expected to leave after struggling for game time at Parkhead recently. It is believed that the Honduran international is closing in on an exit with Rayo Vallecano emerging as his next possible destination. Who will the Hoops replace him with?

Celtic have been linked with plenty of wingers in recent times. And now, it looks like a familiar name is back doing the rounds of the rumour mill once again.

As reported by Il Messaggero, Gustav Isaksen is wanted in the Premier League while Celtic continue to ask about him. In Italy, Bologna like him a lot, but Lazio want €15 million and would prefer to wait for June.

Isaksen is someone Celtic have been linked with in the past as well. And with the club in need of a winger, it looks like the Lazio player is back on their radar although it does not feel like they would sign one for a €15 million transfer fee. Let's see what the future holds though.

Isaksen has been getting a decent bit of football at Lazio recently. But his output has not been the most impressive.

This season so far, he has delivered three goals and assists each. That is not prolific by any means and one has to wonder whether the rumoured €15 million asking fee is justified or not.

There are other players out there who are much more proven. Many would like to see Jota be brought back after things have not worked out for him at Rennes since joining the French club in the summer. He was brilliant while at Celtic during his two years playing under the management of Ange Postecoglou.
