Celtic are reportedly poised to ‘unveil’ Brendan Rodgers as their new manager on Monday, as per the Daily Record. The former Liverpool and Swansea City man is set to return to Celtic Park to replace Postecoglou.

He guided the Hoops to two titles during his first spell in Celtic. The 50-year-old left for Leicester City in 2019 and spent four years with the Foxes in the Premier League, winning 45.1% of games.

Ex-goalkeeper wanted

Celtic academy graduate Ross Doohan may return to Scotland this summer. The Daily Record claim he has emerged on the radar of Aberdeen.

The stopper is currently on the books of Forest Green Rovers and was part of their squad relegation from League One in the last campaign. He moved to Gloucestershire last year after a spell at Tranmere Rovers.

Rangers will have to ‘dig deeper’ if they are to land Malik Tillman on a permanent basis from Bayern Munich, as reported by German news outlet Kicker. The 21-year-old was given the green light to leave the Bundesliga giants last July when the Gers came calling to get some experience under his belt.

He was a hit during his time in Glasgow, scoring 12 goals in 43 games. The USA international’s future is currently up in the air.
