Luis Palma Celtic transfer exit latest as 'medical booked' ahead of Olympiacos switch

Celtic winger Luis Palma will reportedly travel to Greece tonight ahead of a transfer exit to Olympiacos.

It's reported the winger will join the Greek Super League side on loan until he end of the season.

La Voz Del Deporte journalist Alvaro De La Rocha has claimed Palma will fly to Greece tonight

It's thought Palma will leave Edinburgh on Thursday evening to fly to El Piero where a medical examination has been booked.

Palma will undergo a medical ahead of the proposed move to Olympiacos where - barring any issues - he will then be unveiled before the transfer window deadline.

The Piraeus are keen on a permanent move for Palma but reports in Greece suggest they are reluctant to accept a purchase clause in the deal in this window.

Olympiacos, however, are said to prefer having some leeway to negotiate the Scottish Premiership champions' €4m asking price come the summer. 

Palma came on as a late substitute in his current side's 4-2 loss to Aston Villa in the Champions League yesterday evening, and it could well have been his last appearance in green and white.

He has started just twice for his team across all competitions this campaign and now looks set for a January exit.
