Forgotten Celtic ace Holm signed new contract before loan switch

Forgotten Celtic ace Odin Thiago Holm has revealed he signed a new contract with the club before his loan transfer exit to LAFC.

The 22-year-old Norwegian midfielder signed for the MLS side for the season last year after struggling for game time in Glasgow.

However, Holm is confident his long-term future is in Glasgow, having penned a new contract before heading to the US.

The former Valarenga youngster has his mind set on contributing for Celtic under Brendan Rodgers after watching the club in action in the Champions League this season. 

Holm has played 16 times for Celtic since his move in 2023 and is under contract at Parkhead until 2028.

Speaking exclusively to The Celtic Way, Holm said: "I still want to go back to Celtic and play, that's the goal. I signed a new contract before I left for LA. The aim is still to come back and be successful for Celtic and win trophies, just like the current team. 

"I am confident in my own ability to do that, and I still see my future at Celtic. I just need to get consistency in the work that I do.

"I have struggled with some injuries up until now, but I came to Los Angeles to play and to gain experience and to gain consistency and make myself ready for when I return to Celtic and be part of the team. 

"I am contracted to the club until 2028, and there is still time to make my mark. I watched the club playing Champions League football this season and doing well at that level, and that is where I want to be with Celtic and helping them succeed. 

"I want to come back and relaunch my Celtic career. My thoughts are still very much that the club still believes I have a future there.
