Celtic have been pretty busy over the past few weeks. Much busier than most supporters would have anticipated. The kind of urgency that they have shown in the transfer market is one that has been missing since the departure of Ange Postecoglou. Despite that, one has question whether the squad has been weakened since last season.
Kieran Tierney's arrival has to be a major coup if he can stay fit. On the other hand, Benjamin Nygren looked excellent in his pre-season outing and might be one worth keeping an eye on. Interestingly, he was played in midfield instead of on the wing. But other than that, no first-team ready signings have been made. On the other hand, key players have departed.
Celtic are short of options on the flanks right now following the recent departure of Nicolas Kuhn. It has also been confirmed that Jota is not expected to return to action this year. And now, another winger looks to be on his way out.
As reported by Sky Sports, Lech Poznan are in talks to sign Luis Palma. They want to sign the him on a loan deal, with an option to buy next summer.

There had already been some rumours that Palma had reached an agreement with Lech Poznan. It is quite clear that the interest is genuine. Now, let's see if it reaches anywhere of substance.
One would imagine that it will. Palma does not seem to have a spot in Brendan Rodgers' plans. He even spent the second half of last season on loan at Olympiacos.
Palma had already had a spell in Greece with Aris FC before joining Celtic. Thus, many had expected that he would showcase his best on loan at Olympiacos, which would eventually lead to a permanent exit. That did not happen, the Greek club did not sign him and now, the Honduran winger finds himself back to square one.
