However, Rodgers is also interested in being reunited with the player he signed during his time in charge at Celtic.
Ajer's contract expires in 2022 and it appears Celtic are willing to listen to offers for the player who has already signalled he isn't interested in signing a new deal.
Back in March, the player's agent, Tore Pedersen, revealed that Ajer wouldn't be renewing his contract and that there are "very big clubs" interested in his client who have been following him for quite some time.

As for Leicester, Rodgers has seen Caglar Soyuncu perform well following the sale of Harry Maguire to Manchester United last summer.
The 23-year-old Turkey international has formed a formidable partnership with Jonny Evans this campaign that has helped Leicester climb to third place in the Premier League.
However, with Evans now aged 32, Rodgers could see Ajer as a long-term replacement for the Northern Irish veteran.
