Brendan Rodgers was accused of “divisive, misleading, and self-serving” behaviour after resigning as Celtic manager in an astonishing departing statement from the club’s principal shareholder, Dermot Desmond.
Celtic said Rodgers “tendered his resignation” late on Monday night, a day after the club’s defeat at Premiership leaders Hearts. Former boss Martin O’Neill will take interim charge, 20 years on from his first spell as manager.
