Brendan Rodgers has held face-to-face talks with Celtic chiefs over a sensational return to Parkhead after they jetted out to meet the former Hoops boss.
CEO Michael Nicholson and Chris McKay, head of finance, flew out to Mallorca, where Rodgers owns a property, to sit down with the former boss on Saturday to try to thrash out the terms of a potential second stint in charge of the champions, according to the Daily Mail. Majority shareholder Dermot Desmond remains a huge admirer and ally of Rodgers after his success in the role first time around.
After being sacked by Leicester City, for whom he left Celtic midway through the 2018/19 season, angering a number of fans who had expected him to stick around for 10-In-A-Row, Rodgers had planned to take a year out of the game to rest and recharge. But Ange Postecoglou’s departure from Glasgow in order to take up the reins at Tottenham may forced a rethink from Rodgers, with Celtic putting him on their shortlist of replacements.
