Celtic boss Brendan Rodgers shrugs off Leicester links and says he is fully focused on Hoops job
Brendan Rodgers insists he is fully focused on Celtic amid speculation Leicester City are shortlisting him to be their next manager.It emerged the Foxes are lining up the Northern Irishman if under pressure boss Claude Puel is sacked.2

Rodgers could make a return to English football since being sacked by Liverpool in October 2015

However, speaking at Celtic’s Lennoxtown training complex before the Hoops’ William Hill Scottish Cup clash with Airdrie at Parkhead on Saturday, Rodgers said: “Someone mentioned it to me yesterday.“It is the time of the year where you get players and managers get linked with clubs and whatnot.“For me, my only concentration is here at Celtic. “Leicester as we have seen over the last few years, an incredible journey that they have been on as a club and obviously the unfortunate circumstances (owner Vichai Srivaddhanaprabha’s death in a helicopter crash) that they had earlier this season.“It is a fantastic club but for me at this moment in time my concentration is purely on Celtic and looking forward to the second part of this season.”Rodgers has strengthened his squad for the second part of the season with Scotland international Oliver Burke, on loan from West Brom, USA international Timothy Weah, on loan from Paris Saint-Germain, and Ivory Coast’s Vakoun Issouf Bayo, signed from Dunajska Streda.2

Puel’s job at Leicester is looking increasingly uncertain

The former Liverpool boss said: “Oliver and Timothy joined us in Dubai (in winter break) and it’s great for them to bond with the players on the field and off the pitch.“That’s proved invaluable for us. They’ve both settled in very well.“Young Bayo is still going through his paperwork process, and will hopefully join us later in the week.“It’s great to have them on board, all three young talents with very big potential and it’ll be great to nurture that over the next six months.”
