Former Celtic defender Erik Sviatchenko has vented on a failed move to Leicester City from the Scottish champions - just before Brendan Rodgers bombed him out of the starting line-up.
The Dane left Glasgow's east end permanently in 2018 for Midtjylland having claimed two Scottish Premiership titles, two League Cup medals and lifting the Scottish Cup once. The Treble winner was a regular during the early days of Rodgers' time in charge, but was surprisingly phased out of regular action in the second half of the Invincible 2016-17 campaign for Dedryck Boyata.
Sviatchenko claims there was no warning from the then-Parkhead boss before his Celtic career was derailed - with the decision coming after a bid from the Premier League side was knocked back in the 2017 January window. Speaking to Danish outlet 'Offside', the 32-year-old revisited the sliding doors moment in his career that saw his big move south of the border fall apart.
