Brendan Rodgers has been tipped for a move away from Celtic just one year after arriving.

Celtic boss Brendan Rodgers has been tipped for a return to the Premier League. Rodgers has only just returned to Celtic Park after four years or so down South with Leicester City, and what a return it has been.

The Northern Irishman has overseen a double-winning campaign with a Premier League and Scottish Cup title in the bag. Celtic have maintained their dominance domestically, but Rodgers and his men will want to have a better run at Europe next term. But as Celtic look to begin preparations for next season, there are some rumblings of Rodgers returning to the Premier League.

A number of clubs down South need new managers this summer, and one of them is Brighton after they mutually agreed to part ways with Roberto De Zerbi. The Seagulls seemingly felt the need for a change, while De Zerbi has bigger ambitions than the Amex Stadium.

As Brighton scour the market for a new boss, Jeff Stelling has tipped Rodgers for the job, believing he would be the perfect fit for the South Coast club. He said on talkSPORT: “I have no idea if Brighton have an interest or not. But Brendan’s reputation with young players, well that would fit the bill at Brighton absolutely perfectly. However, we shall see.” Rangers legend Ally McCoist also had his say, adding: “There is an element of me that thinks Brendan will want to move on again. I genuinely believe that. Of course he’s had a very successful season winning a league and cup double. Goes without saying. And his CV once again is back up there.
