Brendan Rodgers Told He Faces ‘Difficult Choice’

Tony Pulis has shared his thoughts on Brendan Rodgers’ next move as speculation continues around the Celtic manager’s long-term plans.

The former Premier League boss, who has been in charge at clubs like Stoke, West Brom and Crystal Palace, has faced Rodgers in the dugout before, during the Irishman’s spells with Swansea City and Liverpool.

With Rodgers’ current deal at Celtic Park set to run until the summer of 2026, questions continue over what path he’ll take when that contract ends. Pulis gave his take on where he believes Rodgers could be heading.

He said: (Fruity King), “I’m not so sure where Brendan Rodgers is at in his career at the moment.

“It’s a fabulous club, Celtic, without a doubt, and that’s all around the world, not just in Scotland.

“It’s about the stage he feels his career is at and whether he feels he’s done enough there again to go out and get a new challenge. It’s a difficult, difficult choice for him because the club he’s at now is a fantastic football club.”

Rodgers has enjoyed plenty of success at Celtic. Over his two spells in charge, he’s won several trophies.

Rodgers’ name often comes up when big jobs open up in England, and that talk isn’t likely to stop any time soon. But so far, he’s shown no signs that he’s thinking about leaving Celtic.

Right now, the focus is on getting ready for the season ahead, with Rodgers working to strengthen his squad over the summer. What happens after that could depend on how the team performs and whether something new tempts him away.
