Leicester City defender Filip Benkovic is open to returning to Celtic next season.

Foxes boss Brendan Rodgers said he'd be happy to send the 21-year-old back to Glasgow on loan.

"I read the comments from Brendan Rodgers. At the moment I really do not know what will happen when my loan expires," Benkovic said.

"I've spoken to the sports director at Leicester and he's told me everyone at the club will soon sit down and decide what is best for me.

"I have spoken to Neil Lennon He told me that he would like me to stay at Celtic for another season. I must admit, when I first signed for Celtic, I didn't expect it to be as good as it has been."
