Spotted: Sacked Liverpool boss Brendan Rodgers caught napping… on an easyJet flight!

BRENDAN RODGERS appears to have been caught napping - on an easyJet flight from Spain!

Rodgers has been replaced as Liverpool boss by former Borussia Dortmund coach Jurgen Klopp.

The Northern Irishman was sacked after Liverpool's 1-1 draw at Everton earlier this month and immediately jetted out to Spain for a break with his partner Charlotte and her daughter.

And it seems Rodgers was tired soaking up the Mediterranean sun, after an eagled-eyed passenger spotted him sleeping on a return flight from Malaga.

"Must be tough being sacked and having to spend the week in Marbella #‎LFC #‎liverpool #‎planeselfie," Mike Lindfield posted on Facebook alongside a selfie with Rodgers in the background napping.

According to the Mail Online, the 42-year-old travelled from Liverpool Airport to Malaga by private jet but looks to have had to settle for easyJet for the near-three hour return flight.

Rodgers has been linked with the England job and the Aston Villa hotseat after being given his marching orders at Anfield.

Klopp replaced Rodgers as Liverpool boss last week



And to add insult to injury back on Merseyside, new boss Klopp is renting Rodgers' old £4,000-a-month flat.

Klopp held his first training session at Liverpool's Melwood HQ yesterday, where he met some of the squad inherited from Rodgers' spell.

The German tactician will start his Reds tenure with Saturday's trip to Tottenham.
