Brendan Rodgers has been linked to West Ham United amid their poor start under Julen Lopetegui, but the idea of Rodgers leaving Celtic for West Ham has been firmly dismissed by pundit Chris Sutton. Speaking on BBC Radio 5 Live, Sutton emphasized that Celtic is a “huge club” and a move to West Ham would be a “downgrade” for Rodgers, despite the financial incentives. Rodgers has experienced success upon his return to Celtic, winning the double last season, and he has the team in strong form again this year, with Champions League progression a key goal.
West Ham’s troubles have intensified after their third straight home loss, a 3-0 defeat to Chelsea, marking a historic low point for the club. Lopetegui, who replaced David Moyes after his Europa Conference League triumph, has failed to win over the fans, with some now reflecting on the decision to part ways with Moyes.
Celtic’s ambitions this season, especially in Europe, make a potential move to West Ham seem less attractive to Rodgers. He has already tasted success in Scotland and looks poised for another strong campaign, while West Ham is currently battling to stay clear of the relegation zone in the Premier League.
