READ THIS…Rodgers Return – It looks like the Celtic job is Brendan’s if he wants it

Here is the latest being market on Betfair for the next permanent Celtic manager…

Brendan Rodgers: 8/15 (was 2/1 on Sunday)
Enzo Maresca: 2/1
Daniel Farke: 9/1
Francesco Farioli, Jindrich Trpisovsky: 18/1
Kjetil Knutsen, Des Buckingham: 20/1
Kevin Muscat: 22/1
Stephen Bradley: 25/1
David Moyes: 33/1

As you can see Brendan Rodgers is the new 8/15 odds-on favourite to be the next Celtic manager, having been a 2/1 shot on Sunday ahead of Stephen McGowan’s story in the Daily Mail which broke late last night revealing that senior Celtic executives have travelled to Mallorca by private jet to hold talks with the former Celtic manager who has a home on the island.

Previous frontrunner Enzo Maresca has drifted to 2/1 from even-money and other contenders include Daniel Farke at 9/1, while both Francesco Farioli and Jindrich Trpisovsky are 18/1.

Betfair spokesperson Sam Rosbottom gave The Celtic Star this update this morning: “Brendan Rodgers is the clear 8/15 odds-on favourite to be the next Celtic manager, having been 2/1 on Sunday. Former frontrunner Enzo Maresca has drifted to 2/1 from Evens, with punters now backing Rodgers to return to Celtic Park, just four years after leaving. Daniel Farke is a 9/1 contender, with Francesco Farioli and Jindrich Trpisovsky 18/1 to replace Ange Postecoglou.”

As we said at the start of last week, Brendan Rodgers is looking very likely to be the man to replace Ange Postecoglou and most if not all Celtic supporters seem perfectly happy with that, judging by polls and comments on social media over the last week or so.
