The Irishman says he’s looking forward to rebuilding the squad with new players.
The Hoops boss expressed his sadness last week when the winger was sold to MLS side Charlotte FC. Abada had barely featured in Rodgers’ team since returning from injury in December. Two months previously, his country went to war with Palestine whose flags are regularly waved by supporters at Parkhead.
“We want good players here, whatever nationality or creed. We want players who come here, fit into the culture and develop. This is an incredible club to come to, where you learn how to be a winner, and to deal with pressure and expectation. Following the resignation of former recruitment chief Mark Lawwell, the manager said: “I’m really excited about next season, having now had a look at this group. I’ve seen players who were out for a while and I want to develop this squad.
