Luis Palma was born in La Ceiba, Honduras, on 17 January 2000 (age 26). A left winger by trade, he first made his mark at Vida, where his 2020-21 league season – 13 goals in 26 appearances – gave his career a proper senior platform.
That form helped carry him into European football with Aris FC. Celtic moved for him in August 2023, paying around £3.5m to bring him from Greece. It was not a small punt, but it was still a punt: a wide player with end product, arriving from a league where translating the numbers to Glasgow is never quite automatic.
Palma’s Celtic spell was part of a career still taking shape rather than a settled peak. He was linked with a move away from Celtic in January 2025, and eventually left in July 2026, joining Lech Poznan for around £3.5m.
At Lech, where he wears number 7, he has remained primarily a left-sided attacker. In 2026-27 he has made 15 appearances across all competitions, scoring twice in the Conference League. His current market value is around £3.5m, according to Transfermarkt.
Palma’s career has moved from Honduras to Greece, then Celtic, and on to Poland. The shape of it is clear enough: early productivity at Vida, a European step with Aris, a Glasgow spell that carried expectation, and a fresh attempt to settle at Lech Poznan.
