Celtic are set to receive more than £3m in a permanent Parkhead exit for one player this summer, it has been claimed.
Celtic transfer rumours
The Hoops are on course to seal yet another Scottish Premiership title, with Brendan Rodgers’ side building a 16-point lead at the top of the table ahead of rivals Rangers.
However, despite Celtic’s dominance, Rodgers and those behind the scenes in Glasgow are already looking to the summer transfer window to bolster the first-team squad.

It has been claimed that Celtic are confident of signing Lennon Miller from Motherwell and could even cash in on Reo Hatate to make room for the 18-year-old.
Elsewhere, suggestions of a permanent deal for Celtic loanee Jeffrey Schlupp have been mentioned, with the Crystal Palace man out of contract at Selhurst Park in the summer.
Pundit Michael Stewart recently said: “From Jeffrey Schlupp’s perspective, oh my word. You are sitting on your backside doing nothing at Crystal Palace. Or, you are up at Celtic playing in games like against Bayern Munich and potentially winning things. Enjoying your football. Come the summer, I would imagine that Celtic will put a deal in place to try and sign him. His decision is ‘what better option are you going to get?’.
“You might not be playing every week, but as you see with Celtic, there are so many games. He will play a good chunk of games if he were to sign on.”

Kieran Tierney is also set to return to Parkhead in the summer, with the left-back penning a pre-contract agreement with his Arsenal contract set to expire at the end of the season.
However, alongside numerous incomings, there could once again be a plethora of permanent outgoings. One of those looks set to be £11,000-a-week winger Luis Palma, who is currently out on loan at Europa League outfit Olympiacos.
Luis Palma set to leave Celtic in permanent £3m+ transfer
The Honduras international moved to Greece on loan in January with an option to buy at the end of the season, and it looks as if that decision has already been made by Olympiacos.
According to Futbol Centroamerica, Olympiacos are set to trigger their option to sign Palma from Celtic this summer, with the player impressing technical director Jose Luis Mendilibar, who feels Palma’s potential is very high.
So far, the 25-year-old has made five appearances for his new side, scoring once and registering one assist. He scored 10 times and provided 10 assists in 48 Celtic appearances.
A permanent deal is set to be worth close to €4m (£3.35m), and by the looks of it, it is just a matter of time until Palma’s days on the books of Celtic come to an end.
