BRENDAN RODGERS has been linked with a move for former Tottenham centre-back Steven Caulker after it was revealed his current club QPR are looking to offload the player permanently.

Caulker’s career has stagnated in recent years after a promising start at White Hart Lane. The Englishman has played for his country at under 18 and under 21 level as well as having one full cap.

The defender has recently admitted to struggling with depression and having problems with alcohol in the past but has been working hard behind the scenes to combat his demons and revive his career.

Brendan Rodgers loves a work in progress and would relish the opportunity to help Steven reach his early potential with the manager also keen to add to his defence this summer.

A move to the Scottish Champions could be just what the doctor ordered for the 25-year-old.
