Published on December 1, 2019, Brendan Rodgers has been touted as a potential replacement for Unai Emery, who was recently sacked by Arsenal.

As the Irish manager continues to lead Leicester City to success, he has privately regarded the Arsenal hot-seat as a dream job and would consider an offer.

However, Rodgers is unsure of taking over the job, citing a strong relationship with the people and players at Leicester City.

"My relationship with the people here (Leicester) and the players is very strong," he said.

"We think we are starting something exciting. Arsenal is a fantastic club. One of the greats in this country. If the people at Arsenal have moved Unai on, I’m sure they have an idea of who they want to bring in," he further submitted.

Leicester City is reportedly set to demand £14million in compensation if Rodgers were to leave the club.
