Forgotten Celtic loanee Odin Thiago Holm made his long-awaited debut for Los Angeles FC overnight.
The Norwegian midfielder, whom there were high hopes for at Parkhead, joined the MLS outfit over two months ago on a one-year loan.
Holm has missed the beginning of the American season and spent the majority of it on the sidelines, although he finally made his LAFC debut in the early hours of this morning.

Away at Sporting Kansas City, the 22-year-old was introduced for the final three minutes with his side comfortably 2-0 up.
LAFC currently sit second in the MLS' Western Conference. They face a trip to San Diego next weekend as Holm looks to rack up more minutes.
The central midfielder initially joined Celtic from Valerenga in his homeland in the summer of 2023. He never found consistency in his first year in Glasgow's east end, and in the January window of this campaign, he was deemed surplus to requirements.
Holm is due back at Celtic at the end of the calendar year, in tandem with the MLS season finishing.
Addressing Holm and Bosun Lawal, who has now left Parkhead permanently, at the beginning of the current campaign, Brendan Rodgers said: "I think the two boys (Lawal and Holm) have talent. But I want more. A lot more.
"Talent’s just not enough. You can play in teams, but not in our team."
