Celtic boss Rodgers a target for Leicester

Celtic boss Brendan Rodgers is a target for Leicester City.

The Sun says Foxes manager Claude Puel is coming under growing pressure from fan power at the King Power Stadium.

And Rodgers is understood to be eyeing a return to the Premier League after 2½ years of success at Celtic - and is the first name on Leicester's list.

Puel, 57, has been criticised throughout his 15-month tenure for being too negative despite hauling the club to safety as Craig Shakespeare's successor last season.

Leicester face high-flying Midlands rivals Wolves at Molineux on Saturday.

And a third successive defeat could see the end of the manager who was sacked by Southampton in 2017 after one season.
