The Costa Rican international has been out of the picture this season, playing just seven times in all competitions with the last coming in December.

Gamboa, a £1 million signing under previous manager Brendan Rodgers in 2016, is out of contract at Celtic Park next month and it would be no surprise if the 29-year-old left the club over the summer.
