Brendan Rodgers expects Celtic to be playing all year round before too long as he sees football becoming a "12 month sport."
“Yes, there’s definitely more football crammed into shorter timeframes," Rodgers said. Looking forward, I think football is heading towards becoming a 12-month sport. Players may not only get rest in the summer, but at different points throughout the year. There are more games and higher demands on players. They love playing, but we want to maintain quality in every match.
