Celtic manager Rodgers has admitted that the Hoops could sell Tierney in the summer transfer window.
Rodgers told The Scottish Sun: “It will be down to the club in the end. If an astronomical fee comes in for a player and he has wages to match that, the transfer window can dictate he may have to go.
“Of course, we would love to keep our players for the qualification phase and get right through it. But I can never say everyone will definitely stay. The club may get an offer they can’t refuse.”
