Mikey Johnston was an unused substitute against Kilmarnock this afternoon in Celtic’s 4-0 win over the Ayrshire side.

With Daizen Maeda missing the game through injury, Nicolas Kuhn was afforded the opportunity to start, even scoring in the second half.

James Forrest also started the game, with both Forrest and Kuhn being substituted in the second half.

Luis Palma and Yang Hyun-jun replaced them, signaling an interesting decision from Brendan Rodgers.

Johnston, having impressed on loan in the second half of last season at West Brom, joined up with Celtic for pre-season in the United States.

He played in each of Celtic’s pre-season matches stateside, even netting against Chelsea in a 4-1 win.

But this afternoon, he was not afforded an opportunity off the bench, meaning he now appears to be Celtic’s sixth-choice winger.

This signals that he may depart the club in the coming weeks.

With his form in the English Championship last season, his value is currently at an all-time high, making now an ideal time to cash in on him.

Celtic have also been linked with moves for Royal Antwerp winger Michel-Ange Balikwisha and Hammarby winger Bazoumana Toure, indicating that Johnston’s days at the club are likely numbered.
