Brendan Rodgers is tipped to reunite with familiar faces from his previous tenure in his prospective return to Celtic.
Key figures of his previous backroom team are poised to accompany Rodgers to Parkhead, enhancing the sense of déjà vu among the Hoops’ supporters.
Jack Lyons, who first joined the Hoops during Rodgers’ initial reign, is reportedly lined up to return to the Scottish champions. Lyons, known in football circles for his sharp acumen and ability to make sense of complex tactical puzzles, was initially plucked from obscurity by Rodgers, who was impressed with his insightful football blog. The former Leicester City manager subsequently appointed Lyons as an opposition scout down south.
According to a report in The Sun, Glen Driscoll is also reported to be heading back to Celtic Park. Driscoll, who previously served as head of performance under Rodgers, is set to resume his former role. Known for his meticulous approach and keen eye for player development, Driscoll’s impending return is set to boost Celtic’s squad preparation and player conditioning.
The potential reunion of Rodgers, Lyons, and Driscoll at Celtic Park is creating a palpable buzz among the club’s supporters.
As Rodgers moves closer to sealing his Celtic homecoming, the strategic reconstruction of his familiar backroom team signifies his intent to hit the ground running.
It remains to be seen who will be in Brendan’s first team coach setup. John Kennedy and Gavin Strachan are both still in the building for the moment.
