Brendan Rodgers is being linked with a swift return to management, with reports suggesting Leeds United are eyeing the former Celtic boss as pressure mounts on Daniel Farke.
According to The Scottish Sun, Rodgers has emerged as a potential candidate should Leeds decide to make a change in the coming weeks.
The Yorkshire club have endured an inconsistent run in the Premier League, leaving their hopes of avoiding relegation uncertain and prompting discussions about Farke’s future.
Rodgers has been out of work since leaving Celtic last month after a turbulent second spell in charge. Despite guiding the club to silverware, tensions behind the scenes and frustration among supporters towards the board led to his departure.
The Northern Irishman is believed to be open to the right opportunity but would prefer a project that matches his ambitions after previous spells in the Premier League with Liverpool and Leicester City.

For Leeds, the chance to bring in a coach of Rodgers’ experience would represent a statement of intent as they push to return to the top flight. However, it remains unclear whether the 52-year-old would be tempted by the job at this stage of his career.
While no formal approach has been made, Rodgers’ name being linked again highlights his continued appeal to clubs on both sides of the border, and adds another twist to the managerial merry-go-round following his Celtic exit.
