During the title celebrations at Celtic Park on Saturday, Odin Thiago Holm found himself at the centre of attention despite the lack of minutes this season.
Holm chose not to partake in lifting the Premiership trophy.
After Callum McGregor hoisted the trophy and it was shared among the players, Nicolas Kuhn offered it to Holm. In a quiet gesture of refusal, Holm simply shook his head and bypassed the trophy, continuing past without engaging in the celebration.

The Holm incident comes after two minutes in.
Holm, hailed as a potential prodigy upon his ยฃ2.6 million transfer last summer, has found his time at Celtic challenging. With only 13 appearances to his name this season, many as a substitute, he has struggled to secure a regular spot in a midfield that remains a keystone of Brendan Rodgersโ team strategy.
Still only 21, Holm’s career holds promise, whether it continues at Celtic or takes him elsewhere. However, his limited involvement this season seemed to weigh on him during the celebrations following Celtic’s victory over St Mirren.
