Dermot Desmond Arrives in Glasgow

Majority shareholder Dermot Desmond’s private plane has landed in Glasgow on Tuesday morning as speculation over Celtic’s next manager reaches fever pitch.

Brendan Rodgers has been heavily linked with a return to the club, particularly in the last 48hours.

Fans are attempting to put two and two together and believe the former Celtic boss is on his way back to the club for a second spell with Desmond leading the welcoming party.

There hasn’t been an official word from the club as of yet, but Desmon’s attendance in Glasgow is significant.
