Former Celtic star Kenny Dalglish reckons Brendan Rodgers will be motivated to make a sizeable impact in the Champions League upon his return to Parkhead.
The Scottish football icon has also gone to bat for Ange Postecoglou and reckons a lack of good fortune stopped the now Tottenham Hotspur boss from boasting a better continental record. And now Dalglish is convinced Rodgers will be hell-bent on turning Parkhead into a fortress once more when the strains of Zadok The Priest reverberate around Glasgow's east end in the autumn.
The 72-year-old has given the return of Rodgers his blessing ahead of Monday's official announcement. Speaking to the Sunday Post, he said: "I said last week Celtic should be looking for someone similar to Ange in terms of the style of football, and that's why I can see the logic in this move. Brendan will look to be very successful again and want to make an impact in the Champions League.
