Leicester City defender Harry Maguire believes that new manager Brendan Rodgers has lived up to the hype.

Many were wondering about the type of impact Rodgers could make on the team, who were comfortably in mid table.

Leicester have gone on an impressive winning run and find themselves in with a chance of winning a Europa League place.

"I've always heard off a lot of people that he's a top coach and a great man as well," Maguire told Sky Sports.

"He's definitely lived up to that and when we appointed him I was really excited to work with him.

"I think it shows great ambition from Leicester as a club, obviously such a big club like Celtic and we can bring him in from there.

"His profile is really good and really high and it's a really exciting time. Hopefully we can push on and be successful together."
