Celtic boss Brendan Rodgers and Michel Vorm have an excellent relationship.

Celtic should move for Michel Vorm, with the Dutchman set to leave Tottenham Hotspur this summer.

The Daily Mirror have claimed that Vorm is set to be offloaded by Spurs, as his contract expires at the end of the season.

He should now be on Brendan Rodgers’ wishlist, as Celtic could be in the market for a new stopper.

Craig Gordon remains one of the best goalkeepers in Scotland, but there is a feeling that he could be upgraded by some at Parkhead.

And Vorm may well just offer Celtic an improvement on their current options in net.

Vorm may well see the potential move to Glasgow as an appealing one, for more reasons than one too.

Not only would the veteran goalkeeper be able to play regularly again at Celtic, but the potential link up with Rodgers again would surely be of interest.

Vorm worked with Rodgers at Swansea City earlier in their careers, and was effusive with his praise for the current Celtic boss.

He said to Wales Online in 2012: “For me, we play some of the best football in the league and I think Brendan Rodgers is the manager of the year.

“What we have shown this season is amazing.

“People don’t see our training, but it is very good. We work hard and transfer that onto the pitch.

“We have a lot of confidence and we are not afraid of anybody.

“We have shown that throughout the season and it’s a very big compliment to the manager.”

Rodgers could be a big draw for Vorm, and if he is available on a free, then Celtic should definitely be in the queue for his signature this summer.
