BR has given some hope Benkovic could be back for another crack next year. Would take him in a heartbeat. We need four good central defenders at the very least. With Ajer and Simunovic this would give us 3. Would still like another but this would certainly take the pressure off a bit if it happened.
Rodgers said: “Filip’s situation is one I’ll certainly look at. But there’s no doubt that if I want him to go out on loan again, I’d want him to go to Celtic.
“Of course, I’ll have a conversation with the player and I think he’s a big talent.
“But we’ve got four really good centre-backs here with big experience in Jonny Evans, Harry Maguire, Wes Morgan and Caglar Soyuncu.
“Filip is a top class young player but if he goes on loan again, I’d love him to return to Celtic.
“He needs to play and Celtic has been a great experience for him.”
