Celtic and Roberts Waiting on City for Green Light

It has been no secret that Celtic has been chasing Patrick Roberts since he left at the end of last season.

The reason for so much speculation thus far is the club has not been given a definite no by Manchester City in their pursuit of the midfielder.

Brendan Rodgers spoke on Friday about Patrick and how there is still a chance the Englishman could wear the Hoops again.

“It’s something we would look at. Pat would be amazing for here. I think everyone could see that.

“But it all goes down to, one, Manchester City and how they see his future there. He has gone away on tour with them and got some game time. They will make a decision after that.

“The club can bring him here. It’s more going to be whether the player sees this as the next step for him.”

We understand the player is more than open to a return to Celtic Park.

Patrick was an unused substitute against Spurs for City’s final game in the States.
