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?
9. Dorus de Vries
Initially viewed as a potential solution to the goalkeeping position at Celtic, the Dutch goalkeeper was inconsistent and error prone. Remembered for being beaten from 45 yards during a match against Kilmarnock. Now retired, he is reported to work as a sports consultant. | Getty Images Photo: Getty Images
10. Marco Tilio
The Australian arrived from Melbourne City with a strong reputation, but was unable to make any impact on Celtic's first team. Returned on a two-year loan to his former club, before eventually leaving Celtic on a permanent basis this summer to sign for Rapid Wien. Has started just one game in the Austrian Bundesliga, though, and is struggling for regular first-team football. | SNS Group Photo: SNS Group
11. Nat Phillips
Signed on a season-long loan in the summer of 2023, his time at Parkhead was so poor, his deal was terminated early and he returned to Liverpool the following January. Now with West Bromwich Albion, where he features regularly in the EFL Championship. One of Rodgers' poorest signings. | SNS Group Photo: SNS Group
12. Jeremy Toljan
The German youth international signed on loan from Borussia Dortmund during 2019, but didn't make much of an impression at Celtic, and returned to his parent club shortly afterwards. Signed for La Liga outfit Levante in the summer after ending a six-year spell with Sassuolo by winning the Serie B title. | Getty Images Photo: Getty Images
