Patrick Roberts will stay with Celtic this summer and try to help them qualify for the Champions League group stages.

The winger, who is currently on-loan from Manchester City, was tipped to play for England this summer in the European Under-19 Championships in Germany and the English FA were keen to acquire his services.

However, according to the Daily Record, the winger will instead remain in Glasgow, which he stated he wanted to do earlier this month and will hope to make an early impression on new boss Brendan Rodgers.

Roberts has lit up the Celtic side since his move north of the border after breaking into the first-team in March under Ronny Deila.

Ever since he has started all but one against Kilmarnock, when he came off the bench at half-time.

In his 13 appearances in the green and white Hoops Roberts found the net six times, including twice against Hearts at Tynecastle to virtually confirm Celtic’s fifth successive league title.

Celtic have been absent from the premier European stage for two years on the bounce, and Roberts commitment to his loan club could go some way to helping them qualify this summer
