Leicester City doesn’t want to wait for Celtic boss Brendan Rodgers.
The Sun says they have scrapped plans for an interim boss – and will move to appoint Rodgers THIS SEASON.
The Celtic boss is the club’s No1 target and King Power chiefs also like Rafa Benitez.
They are ready to move immediately to start the process of getting the club back on track following Claude Puel’s sacking.
Rodgers will cost around £6.5million to land from the Scottish Premiership leaders mid-season and with a treble within sight.
The Foxes are expected to make an approach in the next few days over a compensation package.
Benitez has four months left on his Newcastle contract and will be free to move at the end of the campaign if a deal cannot be struck.
