Brendan Rodgers’ second stint as Celtic head coach is over after the Northern Irish manager tendered his resignation to the Scottish champions on Monday afternoon.
His second spell in charge of the club, Rodgers departs Celtic for a second time, having won a total of 11 trophies during his time in Glasgow, with popular former manager Martin O’Neill placed in interim charge of the club, though the 73-year-old has been clear that he does not want the role on a permanent basis.
Despite the sour ending, the 52-year-old’s two stints in charge of the club have brought endless amounts of success. His first summer transfer window saw him recruit the likes of Scott Sinclair, Moussa Dembele and, perhaps less memorably, Dorus de Vries. During his time at Parkhead, fan favourites such as Patrick Roberts and Odsonne Edouard were also big successes under the head coach - but which signing offered Celtic the most, and who was his biggest flop?
Here we rank all 59 Celtic players signed by Rodgers from worst to best and ask - where are they now?
57. Odsonne Edouard
Originally signing on loan from Paris Saint-Germain, the French striker would eventually join Celtic on a permanent deal for a fee of around £9million. Scored 88 goals in 179 appearances for the club before leaving to sign for Crystal Palace in a £15million deal. Wasn't able to replicate his goal-scoring form in England's top flight, but has rediscovered his golden touch at Lens, where he has three goals in his first six games following his summer move to the Stade Bollaert-Delelis. | SNS Group Photo: SNS Group
58. Nicolas Kuhn
Signed from Rapid Wien for a fee of just £3million in January 2024, the German winger took a while to get going, but exploded into life in his first full season at the club. Nominated for the SWFA player of the year award, he scored 21 goals in all competitions before leaving to sign for FC Como in the summer, making Celtic a profit of almost £15million in the process. | SNS Group Photo: SNS Group
59. Moussa Dembele
Another of Brendan Rodgers' most important signings, the French striker bagged a total of 51 goals for Celtic during his time at the club, including a memorable hat-trick in a 5-1 thrashing of Rangers. Signed for approximately £500,000, he was sold for a huge profit at £19.7million to Lyon in 2018. Signed for Saudi Pro League outfit Al-Ettifaq in 2023, and has scored 20 goals in 43 appearances. For multiple reasons, Dembele is Rodgers' best signing. | SNS Group Photo: SNS Group
