Brendan Rodgers lended a helping hand to recently sacked Preston boss Ryan Lowe by inviting him to watch his Celtic side train ahead of Saturday's top of the table clash with Aberdeen.

Lowe landed the gig at Preston after leading Plymouth Argyle to promotion to League One in 2019, but after three years at the helm of the English Championship club lost his job on the opening day of the current season in the wake of a 2-0 defeat to Stoke.

It's not the first time the former striker has found the help and guidance of a Premiership boss, having struck up a friendship with former Rangers gaffer and fellow Scouser Steven Gerrard while he was still managing Plymouth.

In November 2021, Lowe revealed that he asked for the Liverpool icon's opinion when he was offered the job at Preston. He said: "When the call came [from Preston], I rang him and said ‘look, what do you think?’, he said ‘what are you ringing me for, it’s a no-brainer isn’t it?
