The Northern Irish manager believes the backing of the Scottish champions' large supporter base could help the club finish near the top
Newly-crowned Scottish champions Celtic have the footballing heritage required to thrive in the Premier League, according to manager Brendan Rodgers.
A 5-0 demolition of Hearts on Sunday confirmed Celtic's sixth successive Scottish Premiership title, with Scott Sinclair scoring a hat-trick as Celtic remain unbeaten in the league with an unassailable 25-point cushion from second-placed Aberdeen.
A move to the Premier League has long been mooted for Celtic and Old Firm rivals Rangers.
And former Liverpool and Swansea City manager Rodgers believes the club would succeed in English football, saying they would almost certainly finish in the top six of England's top flight.
