Brendan Rodgers silenced his critics this season guiding Celtic to a League and Cup double in his first year back at the helm.
The Irishman faced a barrage of challenges ranging from poor recruitment and a spate of injuries to mending fractured relationships with sections of the fanbase.
When Rodgers left Celtic for Leicester City back in 2019, many fans felt a deep sense of betrayal. The manner of his departure left a bitter taste, and his return was met with a mix of hope and scepticism. However, the seasoned manager has proven his mettle, demonstrating that his tactical acumen and leadership qualities remain undiminished.
With the season now over and the players enjoying a well-deserved break, Rodgers himself has taken some time to unwind.
On Saturday, an image emerged of a relaxed Brendan Rodgers in Spain, where he was spotted with none other than Jurgen Klopp. The former Liverpool manager, who stepped down from his role at Anfield after an extraordinary tenure, admitted he was burnt out and needed time to recharge.

Klopp took over from Rodgers when the Irishman left the Scouse side in 2015.
