Brendan Rodgers has already been on the end of Scott Brown’s phone.
As soon as the Leicester City boss heard the news on Tuesday that his old skipper might be ready to reinvent himself as a manager having hung up his boots at Aberdeen, an invitation was extended for Brown to travel down south for a cup of tea and a catch-up.
“Yeah, I’m already on the case with that,” Rodgers nodded yesterday as he prepared to welcome Brown back over the border like a long lost son.
