Fringe man Luis Palma has been told he SHOULDN'T worry about his future despite being in a "delicate moment" at Celtic.
The 24-year-old is struggling to make his mark in his second season at Celtic Park - but did make his first appearance in over a month when he came off the bench during the Champions League stalemate with Atalanta. Former Honduras international David Suazo has revealed that he held talks with the winger - and advised him that as long as he felt "happy and committed" to the club he should not eye a January move despite minimal minutes for the Scottish Premiership champions this term.
Offering an inside view on Palma's mindset, he told Telivicentro: “Actually the talk with Luis was more about pleasure, advice, because they are situations that some players would like to receive, he comes from Scotland to Italy, a country where I live, I am close, it happened that we were able to talk to him. These are the things that help you when you are abroad, that someone you know comes to visit you in times of difficulty.
“Talking to him, I told him, don’t worry, we all go through these difficulties. I even told him an anecdote of mine at Cagliari where I went four months without scoring a goal and it’s the most difficult things in football that help you to grow.
"Thank God he had minutes because the delicate moment he is living with Celtic, these minutes add up, they make you see that he is improving and I felt happy and committed, and those are the things, the visits of a friend, of a compatriot helps you."
Palma's situation could see Celtic revive their interest in Brondby forward Mathias Kvistgaarden. The 22-year-old has been on the Parkhead agenda in recent windows - and can play on the left flank or lead
