Rodgers: 'Boyata is welcome back'

“I had a long chat with Dedryck the other day. We have created a wee bit of distance from what happened last week," Rodgers said

“We will look at that over the weekend but Dedryck is still a Celtic player and I want to have him involved.

“He has been with us a couple of years. I know he is a good guy.

“Everyone makes a mistake but if there is a mistake made, I know sometimes it is not the way in the modern life, but people need a chance to redeem themselves and I would like to have him involved because he is a top-class player.”

Boyata has been absent from first team duties after asking for a move away from the Glasgow side.
