Celtic’s Tom Rogic could reportedly reunite with Brendan Rodgers at Leicester City while Southampton want to lure him to the Premier League, too.
Premier League duo Leicester City and Southampton are keen to sign Tom Rogic from Celtic this summer, according to the Sydney Morning Herald.
A skilful 26-year-old who is arguably the most naturally talented footballer anywhere in the Scottish top flight, the Australian international has been a Celtic player for the last seven years, having joined the reigning Premiership champions from Central Coast Mariners.
And despite making just 17 league appearances in a season disrupted by injury, the Sydney Morning Herald reports that Rogic is still a target for both Southampton and Leicester this summer.
The Saints have raided Celtic on numerous occasions over the years, Victor Wanyama, Stuart Armstrong and Virgil van Dijk all moving to St Mary’s from Glasgow, and the report claims they have watched Rogic for the last two seasons.
It is claimed that the playmaker could cost in the region of £20 million, which would see him overtake Mark Bresciano to become the most expensive Australian footballer of all time.
Leicester are also reported to be interested in a deal that would see former Celtic manager Brendan Rodgers reunite with a player he once called his ‘magic man’, Evening Times.
