Celtic are hopeful of completing a deal for full-back Emilio Izaguirre by Friday, says Brendan Rodgers.

Izaguirre left Celtic at the end of the 2016-17 season, joining Saudi Arabian club Al-Fahya on a two-year deal. However, he ended his contract early and became a free agent this summer.

The Honduran international spent seven seasons with Celtic, winning six titles. He made 175 appearances for the club after signing from FC Motagua in 2010.
