Brendan Rodgers to Add Familiar Face to Celtic’s Backroom Staff

Jack Lyons is set to return to Celtic, according to a report.

Celtic Brendan Rodgers

Lyons, who first caught the attention of Brendan Rodgers during his initial tenure as Celtic’s manager, is a key addition to Rodgers’ backroom staff as he rebuilds his team.

Lyons’ insightful tactical analysis on his blog impressed Rodgers so much that he brought Lyons in-house, appointing him as an opposition scout. Lyons’ career took a further turn when Rodgers persuaded him to join Leicester City in 2019, where he played a crucial role in enhancing the performances of players like James Maddison.

According to The Sun, Lyons will be returning to Celtic in a similar capacity, providing his expert analysis to support Rodgers and the team.

With a friendly against Wolves in Dublin on the horizon and the first competitive match of the season drawing closer, Rodgers and his team will be keen to put their ideas into action. The absence of midweek matches during August will provide valuable time for training sessions, allowing Rodgers and his staff, including Lyons, to work closely with the squad without the high-pressure distractions of Champions League qualifiers.
