Leicester boss Rodgers targeting Celtic midfielder McGregor

Leicester City boss Brendan Rodgers is targeting Celtic midfielder Callum McGregor.

The midfielder is thought to be rated around £25million, and Rodgers already tried to make a move for him last summer, says The Sun.

Leicester are worried about losing James Maddison to Manchester United in the next transfer window, and are looking for backup.

McGregor played under Rodgers when he was Celtic boss, and has further impressed this season, scoring 11 goals and getting 10 assists.

The Scot signed a new contract last summer, but Rodgers is confident he can lure the midfielder to the King Power Stadium.
