Luis Palma has pulled on a Lech Poznań shirt for the first time since leaving Celtic on loan earlier this month, with the Honduran winger already featuring in both domestic and European action for the Polish champions.

Palma made his debut on Saturday in the Ekstraklasa, coming off the bench in the 67th minute of Lech’s chaotic 4-3 away win over Lechia Gdańsk.

Thrown into a wide‑open game, he was involved in several attacking moves and picked up a yellow card deep into stoppage time as his new side clung on for victory.

Last night, he made his first European appearance for Lech, introduced at half‑time in the second leg of their Champions League second qualifying round tie against Breiðablik in Iceland.

With a commanding 7-1 first‑leg lead, Palma was given 45 minutes to build sharpness as Lech eased to a 1-0 win on the night, sealing an 8-1 aggregate triumph.

While Palma has yet to find the net, his early involvement shows he is already in manager Niels Frederiksen’s plans. The winger’s loan deal includes an option for the Polish side to make the move permanent next summer, meaning these next few months could be decisive for his future.

For Celtic, the move was seen as a chance for Palma to regain form and confidence after a mixed spell in Glasgow. Signed in 2023, he showed flashes of ability but struggled for consistency under Brendan Rodgers. 

Lech believe Palma’s flair and ability to operate on either wing can be an asset as they push for another league title and aim to reach the Champions League group stage.

If he impresses, Celtic could see the deal turn permanent, but if not, he may yet return to Glasgow next summer.

Either way, his first two outings suggest Palma is already settling into life in Poland, with more opportunities likely to follow in the coming weeks.
