Gavin Strachan 'turns down' Shrewsbury Town for Celtic stay as part of Brendan Rodgers' return

Gavin Strachan has turned down the chance to become Shrewsbury Town manager after TWO big money offers, according to a report.

The English League One club targeted the highly-rated Celtic coach to take over the top job after Steve Cotterill's exit and made advances to lure him south of the border - with the last attempt believed to be made in the last 24 hours.

However, the Scottish Sun report that he rejected the chance and made it clear that he wants to be part of Brendan Rodgers' new era at Parkhead. The former Hoops gaffer is back in the hot-seat for a second time after Ange Postecoglou's switch to Tottenham. It is believed the new manager also didn't want to lose the coach with club chiefs fully aware of the interest.
