Celtic manager Brendan Rodgers is reportedly on the radar of Leicester City.
Brendan Rodgers has been a huge success at Celtic, and it is only a matter of time before the former Liverpool manager gets the chance to work in the Premier League again.
Rodgers was a success in the English top flight during his time at Liverpool and Swansea, and it is almost inevitable that he will go back to the Premier League.
Could that be with Leicester City? As announced on the Foxes’ official website, Claude Puel has been relieved of his duties at the King Power Stadium.
According to BBC Sport, Rodgers’s name has been whispered behind the scenes at Leicester for months, and the former Liverpool boss is reported to be the prime candidate for the managerial role at Leicester.
Rodgers’s latest comments on his future suggest that the Celtic boss could be interested in the managerial job at Leicester.
Speaking ahead of Celtic’s Scottish Premiership match against Motherwell at Celtic Park on Sunday afternoon, Rodgers was strong in his assertion that he is focused on the job at hand, but perhaps crucially he did not mention about what he plans to do after the end of the season.
Rodgers told BBC Sport: “My job is to concentrate on the football aspect, and that is with Celtic.
“I’ve been stood here for two and a half years and I’ve been asked similar questions, my message is always very, very clear, I’m very concentrated on the game.
“We’re in really good form and my concentration is fully on getting the three points [against Motherwell].”
