Ex Celtic loanee Patrick Roberts is on Leicester City’s shorlist.
Brendan Rodgers’ imminent move to Leicester will give him the financial firepower to be reunited with ex Celtic loanee Patrick Roberts.
Rodgers is set to be appointed by the Foxes, BBC Sport report.
Interest in signing Manchester City owned Roberts is shared by Leicester.
The Telegraph reported last June that Leicester were close to pulling off a move for the talented winger for around £11 million.
Ultimately he deal fell through, with Manchester City unwilling to sell, and sent him out on loan to Spanish side Girona instead.
It has not worked out well for Roberts at all.
He has made just four La Liga starts, and has no goals or assists.
A move to Leicester this summer would be perfect, and Manchester City should look to cut their losses and cash in.
Roberts thrived under Rodgers at Celtic for 18 months on loan, and reuniting with him would be best for his career.
