Celtic manager hunt: Graham Potter, André Villas-Boas, Eddie Howe in frame to replace Brendan Rodgers at Parkhead

A significant update on Brendan Rodgers‘ future as Celtic manager has emerged, revealing the club’s current stance.

Brendan Rodgers faces pressure at Celtic.

The Irishman is in his second spell as manager at Parkhead, following a rather successful previous stint that includes two Scottish Premiership titles.

a Scottish Cup title, and three Scottish League Cups.Rodgers averaged a fantastic 2.24 points per game as Celtic manager in 169 games.

demonstrating their dominance in all competitions as he restored his image following a dismal end to his time at Liverpool.

This time, however, the former Liverpool and Leicester City manager might not be as popular among the Hoops faithful.

as his squad competes for another league title this season.

They trail the Rangers by two points entering the final stretch of the season, which many would not have predicted in August.

Despite this, a recent source said that Rodgers was not under fear of termination.

However, he appears to be in a more precarious condition than before.

A fresh revelation has emerged, providing greater insight into his future.

Celtic voice their thoughts on Brendan Rodgers.

According to a recent discovery by Football Insider journalist Pete O’Rourke,

Celtic do not envision Rodgers being their manager in the foreseeable future.

According to the publication, he is not considered a “long-term” choice for leadership.

The article goes on to add that “there have been too many on-field and off-field troubles during Rodgers’ second time at Parkhead,

This could push the board to make a decision.”

The board of directors of Manchester United is “likely to sack the former Leicester City manager if he fails to win the league this season,”

Emphasizing the necessity of going the distance in the Scottish Premiership.

This is a strange update in some ways, because Celtic do not appear to have enough trust in Rodgers to ensure that he is the long-term solution at Parkhead.

All this suggests is that there are legitimate concerns about him moving forward, but not enough to get rid of him right now.

Brendan Rodgers’ managerial career	Matches	Points per game
Celtic	38	2.05
Leicester City	204	1.59
Celtic	169	2.24
Liverpool	166	1.77
Swansea City	96	1.55
Reading	23	1.04
Watford	31	1.45

To be fair to the 51-year-old, terminating him before the end of the season may appear rash.

Celtic are still in the title race, having lost only three of their 29 league games all season.

Granted, he is presently averaging 2.05 points per game in his second season as manager;

indicating a slight decline, but the benefits still exceed the disadvantages.

It is easy to imagine Rodgers being sacked if the Rangers win the championship ahead of their opponents.

Considering the kind of fury it may and should elicit.
