Nicholas says Celtic are considering Lennon to replace Rodgers

Charlie Nicholas believes Celtic are considering replacing Brendan Rodgers with Neil Lennon, but he doesn’t believe the move will ever go through. Lennon, who spent seven years at Celtic as a player and made over 200 appearances, managed the Hoops between 2010 and 2014, winning three Scottish Premiership titles and two Scottish Cups.

Lennon, who was named SPL Manager of the Year in 2011/12, is currently in charge of Hibernian, whom he helped earn promotion from the Scottish Championship in 2016/17. Nicholas, a former Celtic player himself, believes the Hoops are keeping an eye on their old boss due to the problems Rodgers’ charges are having this season.
