Celtic manager Brendan Rodgers guided Liverpool to a second-placed finish in the Premier League in 2013-14.
Celtic manager Brendan Rodgers has suggested to The Glasgow Evening Times that he is not going to take his new contract at the club for granted.
As announced on Celtic’s official website on Friday afternoon, Rodgers has signed a new four-year deal which will see him remain in charge of the first team until June 2021.
The former Liverpool and Swansea City manager was initially appointed in his current role at the Bhoys in the summer of 2016.
Rodgers has already been a massive success at Celtic. The former Watford boss has guided the Hoops to the Scottish Premiership and the Scottish League Cup this season.
The Glasgow giants have also progressed to the semi-finals of the Scottish Cup and featured in the group stage of the Champions League this campaign.
Rodgers, though, is not taking his tenure at Celtic for granted, pointing out that he had to leave Liverpool in October 2015 despite guiding the Merseyside outfit to a second-placed finish in the Premier League in the 2013-14 season.
“Maybe after one or two years the club say ‘Brendan, we have had enough of you, it has been great’,” Rodgers told The Glasgow Evening Times.
“I will never forget that I signed four years at Liverpool and after a year it was ‘thank you very much’. So you never know what will happen. But that is the plan – the plan is to be here for four years.”
