Liam Henderson hasn’t looked back since leaving Celtic earlier this year.

Celtic fans on Twitter are praising their former Bhoy Liam Henderson.

The 22-year-old left Celtic in January but has been going from strength to strength since moving to Italy.

The Scottish midfielder, who joined Bari originally, is now at Hellas Verona after joining in August.

And he’s making quite a name for himself in Italy, it must be said.

Henderson scored Verona’s first goal in Saturday’s 2-1 win at home to Perugia, curling home a wonderful free kick.

It’s the Scot’s second goal for the Serie B side, and here’s how he reacted on Twitter:

He might be doing well abroad, but that doesn’t mean that manager Brendan Rodgers was wrong to offload him.

Simply put, Henderson, who only managed 29 Premiership appearances from 2013 until 2018, still wouldn’t be getting a game at Parkhead.

He isn’t strictly a bad player by any means, evident by his resurgence over the past nine months, but Rodgers does have better ones in his position.
