Brendan Rodgers refused to be attracted to reports that he could reunite with striker Jimmy Vardy in Celtic.

Vardy is a free agent after leaving Leicester at the end of last season and reported on Monday that the 38 -year -old striker was transferring his heart to Celtic.

Sky Sports News realizes that there was no connection between Celtic and Fardi at this stage.

“I hear, I will not talk about any individual player,” said Rodgers.

“Of course I worked well with Jimmy, it was great for me in my time in Leicester. But there were many names that were put up. I will not disclose both cases.”

The transport window is closed on September 1, with hoop fans thwarted due to the lack of new signatures while some players can also leave Parkhead.

“There is a lot of noise, especially because it is competing in the end.”

“I was in the changing rooms enough to find out how stability could be lost at this moment, because some players will think, are they staying, are they going?

“But in the midst of that, you have really important games.

“I already mentioned this to the players several weeks ago, respect and recognition that it is a difficult part of the season.

“However, the money in your bank will be every month and you will be a Celtic, while you need to perform so that you don’t need to worry about anything else.

“I respect and acknowledge that it can be difficult, in particular, will it be here or are you not?

“But Celtic pays your wages, and while they do it, you focus on doing your best to your baskets.”

“Quality above the quantity”

Celtic Captain Callum McGregor believes that the club should only add new signatures that improve the team.

“Everyone is not patient in football,” he said.

“Everyone wants the next new bright thing and this is where we are. This is the way the world is and it is clear that we must continue to progress.

“We have to continue quality and this is the only thing that I will say is that we must add quality.

“We don’t just want to add numbers for that because we are approaching the window and thinking,” We need bodies, we need bodies. “

“We need quality players and men here, and men who have truly good in the past 12 months, and we must also trust them.

“We have to trust the team. The team is in good momentum, and it got some good results last year in the Champions League.

“We have started well, so we have to trust the team there to go and do the task as well, and of course like everyone we want quality players to come and add it and help.”
