NafisaLuis Palma has become an overlooked figure at Celtic and spent the 2025-26 season on loan at Lech Poznan.
During his spell there, the winger impressed, and the Polish outfit have been eager to turn his temporary stay into a permanent move during this summer’s transfer window.
However, De La Rocha reported via X that Lech Poznan and Celtic were unable to strike an agreement.
As a consequence, Palma now appears destined to return to Parkhead once his loan arrangement comes to an end.
Sevilla have also expressed interest in the 26-year-old, with Palma’s long-term future still up in the air.
Lech Poznan have one week to sign Luis Palma
The report states that Lech Poznan possess a £3.46million option to purchase Palma this summer.
However, the Polish club have been presenting alternative proposals, with Celtic now reportedly bringing negotiations to a close.
Poznan remain keen to retain the winger and now have one week to activate the agreed payment.
The Honduran’s representatives have received no further contact from Lech’s hierarchy since discussions broke down.
Sevilla continue to monitor developments closely, but for now Palma is expected to return to Celtic after finding it difficult to establish himself in the first team.
With the winger still having two years remaining on his contract, it remains unclear what the Hoops intend to do with Palma should a suitable bid fail to arrive during the current transfer window.
Who else could leave Celtic this summer?
Football Insider has exclusively reported that Celtic are prepared to listen to offers for Reo Hatate during this summer’s transfer window.
The midfielder has slipped down the pecking order at Parkhead and the club are reportedly looking to cash in on the player, who has two years left on his current deal.
Sources claim that the Glasgow giants have already moved beyond the 28-year-old in their long-term planning and are willing to move him on to create room for further arrivals this summer.
Hatate found it difficult to force his way into the starting XI towards the end of the 2025-26 campaign and was even omitted from the matchday squad for the closing fixtures against Hearts and Dunfermline Athletic.
However, it remains to be seen whether any club will come forward with an offer for Hatate following what has been a challenging season for the Japan international.
