A Celtic invincible is on the lookout for a new club again after his short-term spell has come to an end.

It’s that time of the year where players’ contracts are coming up to an end and some have moved on from their clubs.

It will be the same with Celtic too as Brendan Rodgers prepares for a busy summer. With players like Luis Palma wanted by clubs in Greece, and Daizen Maeda linked to Premier League teams, some could follow in the footsteps of a Bhoys icon.

Stuart Armstrong leaves Sheffield Wednesday as a free agent

Stuart Armstrong is a fan favourite at Celtic Park and enjoyed plenty of happy moments in the green and white.

Since leaving, he’s had spells with Southampton, Vancouver Whitecaps and most recently Sheffield Wednesday.

He joined Wednesday in January but is already on the move again after the Owls confirmed he would leave at the end of his current deal.

Armstrong played 11 times for the Championship club but the 33-year-old is now looking for a new adventure.

Stuart Armstrong was a huge success at Celtic Park

The former Scotland international is fondly remembered for his time at Parkhead and enjoyed plenty of success.

As well as being part of the unbeaten Scottish Premiership-league winning team in the 2016/17 season, Armstrong won four league titles, two Scottish Cups and two Scottish League Cups.

He spent four years with Celtic, joining in 2014 before moving to the Premier League to join Southampton in a £7m deal.
