Brendan Rodgers is being lined up by Celtic to become the new manager in the summer.
Celtic will appoint their 17th manager in the summer after Ronny Deila announced that he will be leaving at the end of the season.
Rodgers has had previous spells at Swansea and Liverpool – and guided the latter to an infamous second place finish three seasons ago in the Premier League.
According to the Scotsman, Celtic will make an offer to Rodgers as he looks to return to management next season.
He was reportedly set to make a return to his former club Swansea City but the Glasgow side are looking to tempt him with a late offer.
Under the guidance of Tommy Burns, Rodgers began his career in management after being forced into early retirement and was appointed head of youth development at Reading by the Celtic legend.
With the lure of potential Champions League football and trophies, several candidates have already put themselves in the frame to take over the reigns at Celtic this summer.
