Pundit names forward as Celtic's signing of the season

Pundit Kenny Miller insists Luis Palma has been Celtic’s signing of the season so far.

The Honduras international has scored nine goals and provided 12 assists for the Hoops since joining from Greek Side Arts in the summer window.

And Miller picked out Palma’s “technical ability” as one of the reasons he has been a success in Glasgow.

Speaking on Clyde 1, he said: “I was actually racking my brain when we were talking about signings and what new signings for Celtic actually start games.

“Palma is the one. Bernardo has obviously come in during the last four games. I think he has been really, really good in the last four or five games, Bernardo.

“Is that enough to be in this type of conversation about the signing of the season? Probably not.

“But Palma absolutely does. His assists. His goals. In terms of a replacement for Jota, he is no Jota, but he is a different type of player. But his numbers are as equally as good.

“With Palma, that was a position that needed to be addressed when Jota left. It took him a little bit of time to nail that slot down, but since he has, what has he got seven goals, up there with assists as well.

“His performances have been very good. He just gives them something different on that side of the pitch than what Maeda does, with his pace and power.

“What Palma brings is that technical ability. That vision. Pass and creativity. Whilst still remaining a goal threat.”
