Celtic fans, can you get 8/8 on this quiz on forgotten players? First up: who is this?

His exit would make sure that there may be space for someone else to come in to the attacking midfield spot and that could give a chance to Moffat. Having said that, the youngster has impressed in only one game and he might have to perform in the next few games to have a chance of playing in the first-team.
