Celtic are on the brink of snapping up Honduras international winger Palma after he was previously linked with Rangers.
Incoming new Celtic star Luis Palma's father has revealed his pride at his son's move and insisted he can't wait to see him play Champions League football.
"He has matured a lot in recent years. Now he will play in the Champions League - the world's greatest tournament. I will be a very proud dad. I believe he will travel to Scotland over the weekend. He's come a long way from when he kicked a ball here. I remember his grandfather giving him into trouble because his football was destroying his vegetable patch! But all he's ever wanted since he was very young was to kick a football about.
Palma is a key member of the Honduran team who have three games coming up next month - a friendly against Guatemala and two CONCACAF Nations League qualifiers against Jamaica and Grenada. But his dad confirmed he won't be making himself available for the first game...which is just as well for Celtic as it's on the same day as next week's Old Firm showdown.
