'I love my life here' - Rodgers dismisses speculation he could quit Celtic

The Northern Irishman has been publicly critical of the board at Celtic Park in recent weeks but still wants to bring in new players

Brendan Rodgers has rubbished speculation that he could walk away from Celtic over dissatisfaction with the club’s spending during the transfer window.

The Scottish champions suffered a surprise 1-0 loss in their second game of the Scottish Premier League season to Hearts, thanks to Kyle Lafferty’s goal, as they look to secure a third consecutive domestic treble.

Rodgers has overseen a glorious period in the club’s history, with Saturday’s loss only his 17th in all competitions since taking the reins in 2016, but he has reportedly struggled with the board at Celtic Park over their inability to add players during the off-season.
