In a candid admission, Brendan Rodgers has confirmed that money is not the driving force behind Greg Taylor’s impending departure from Celtic. With Kieran Tierney set to return to the club as a free agent, Taylor is faced with the prospect of leaving after a successful six seasons at Parkhead.
Loan star Jeffrey Schlupp has caught the eye in Glasgow and Rodgers has hinted that he could be a contender to compete with Tierney next season. However, Rodgers remains hesitant to make any definite decisions, stating that it is something they will consider as the season progresses.
Despite the likelihood of Taylor’s departure, Rodgers praised the left-back for his contributions over the past two seasons. He expressed his disappointment at the possibility of Taylor leaving, noting that he values Taylor as a person and appreciates his playing style.
While acknowledging the need for a replacement if Taylor does leave, Rodgers emphasized that his desire was always to keep Taylor at the club. However, he understands Taylor’s desire for regular game time and respects his decision if he chooses to move on.
In conclusion, Rodgers expressed his confidence that Taylor will continue to give his all for the team until the end of the season, regardless of the outcome.
