CELTIC misfit Marco Tilio is a wanted man elsewhere.
The Australian winger has played a mere 28 minutes for the Hoops – cameo appearances against Motherwell and Hibs in 2024 – since his £2million arrival from Melbourne City in July the previous year.
Tilio came on as a 63rd-minute substitute to take Yang Hyun’s place in the 4-0 win over Newcastle United at Parkhead yesterday, but doesn’t appear to figure in Brendan Rodgers’ long-term plans for the club.
He has had two loan spells at his former club and the A-League outfit have sounded out the Hoops about a permanent deal for the 23-year-old flanker.
A BHOY ALONE…Marco Tilio at Parkhead after his £2million arrival in July 2023.
However, they could lose out to Rapid Vienna who are being linked with a temporary or permanent move for Tilio, according to Sky Sports Austria.
The original offer was to take the player on loan for a fee of £350,000 with an option to buy, although it is believed a £1.3million four-year deal is also being discussed.
Another wide Bhoy who is heading for the Parkhead exit is Honduran international Luis Palma who spent the second half of last season at Greek giants Olympiakos.
No business was done and the forward who cost £3.5million when he joined from Aris Thessaloniki in the summer of 2023 was returned to Celtic.
Palma has been linked with a season-long loan at Polish outfit Lech Poznan.
