Former Celtic striker John Hartson believes Rodgers will be making a mistake if he does head to the King Power Stadium, with Leicester representing a step down from the Glasgow giants.<\/p>\n

The Hoops legend told the Evening Times<\/em>: \u201cI see the attraction of Leicester. They are very wealthy. They play in one of the top leagues in the world and there would be money to spend.<\/p>\n

\u201cBut I would still argue that in terms of clubs, Leicester are nowhere near\u00a0Celtic. And I say that with the greatest respect.<\/p>\n

Rodgers stated amid that speculation that he was fully committed to his post in Scotland.<\/p>\n

It is, however, now being reported that he has had a change of heart and will be heading back south of the border.<\/p>\n

If he does walk away from Celtic, then he will leave with two treble successes to his name, with the Bhoys currently in the hunt for a third in succession after already landing the Scottish League Cup while reaching the Scottish Cup quarter-finals and sitting at the top of the Premiership table.<\/p>\n
