CHRIS SUTTON has called the move by Brendan Rodgers surprising even though the Englishman said he could be tempted by the job down south.
Celtic fans have woke up to this mornings news that Celtic will lose their best manager in years to Leicester football club and it is a massive sucker punch to the support.
The speculation ramped up in the past 24 hours but now a deal to take Rodgers back to the Premier League looks imminent and he will not try and attain ten in a row with Celtic.
Neil Lennon looks like he’s back in at Celtic… Brendan Rodgers off to Leicester… surprising timing for Brendan to leave now and not in the summer…

Neil Lennon coming back in will steady the ship somewhat but again it’s not ideal going into the final third of the season.
Celtic players will be shocked by the news and the man that most of them have been signed by or developed under will no longer be taking the club forward.
We will be digesting this for weeks.
