EXPLAINED: Brendan rodgers details callum mcgregor mallorca lunch that played key role in celtic return | Vintage Vibes

Brendan Rodgers has detailed the secret Mallorca lunch with Callum McGregor that played a key role in his Celtic return.

The former Hoops gaffer is officially back in the hot seat for a second spell after being confirmed as Ange Postecoglou's successor at Parkhead. The 50-year-old - who enjoyed a trophy laden spell during his first stint in charge - has put pen to paper on a three-year deal as he looks to bring further success to the Scottish champions and make a mark on the European stage.

The squad has virtually changed since his previous time at the club but skipper McGregor was 'pivotal' during that period and he's a big reason behind the ex-Liverpool and Leicester City gaffer accepting Dermot Desmond's pitch to return.
