Rodgers has excelled in the managerial hotseat at Celtic since his move north of the border.
Dietmar Hamann believes Leicester City should approach Celtic manager Brendan Rodgers because the Scottish champions have reached their peak.
Premier League side Leicester are currently without a manager after the Foxes gave Craig Shakespeare his marching orders last week, with Michael Appleton currently taking temporary charge of the side.
Former Liverpool and Swansea manager Rodgers has been instrumental in Celtic’s success since his move in the summer of 2016, helping the club complete a remarkable treble last term and qualifying for the Champions League this season.

Speaking to the Scottish Sun, ex-Liverpool midfielder Hamann believes it is Celtic’s results so far in the Champions League that will have convinced Rodgers that he can take the Hoops no further.
Despite beating Belgian champions Anderlecht 3-0, the heavy defeats by Paris Saint-Germain and Bayern Munich may have persuaded Rodgers that he has taken Celtic as far as they can go and a move elsewhere may be favourable to the Northern Irishman.
“Leicester should go for Brendan Rodgers. He has done a fine job at Celtic, but the defeats by PSG and Bayern Munich have shown him that he can go no further,” Hamann said.
“The gulf between the best in Scotland and the best in Europe is immense. His record at Liverpool more than stands comparison with Jurgen Klopp and he could definitely get Leicester into the top half.”

Rodgers watched on from the touchline at Hampden Park on Saturday as Celtic went 60 matches unbeaten in Scottish football to reach the Betfred Cup final with a 4-2 win over Hibernian.
It remains to be seen if Leicester can tempt Rodgers into moving back down south, with three years still to run on the four-year contract Rodgers signed at Celtic back in April.
