After such a successful debut season in charge of Celtic, Brendan Rodgers is in a strong position this summer. He has significant clout to bring in players he wants, with the freedom to spend significant amounts of money should he choose to.

You get the impression that the Hoops are far from finished their summer recruitment drive, despite already bringing two players to the club; Jonny Hayes and Kundai Benyu.

While full-scale revolution doesn't need to take place at Celtic player, adding players of experience and quality would really enhance what is a pretty youthful squad.

The likes of Kieran Tierney, Moussa Dembele, Jozo Simunovic, Callum McGregor and Tom Rogic are all amongst the team's top performers and each of them are still under 25.

The Hoops are hoping to make a splash in the UEFA Champions League group stages next term so attracting veterans who have played at the top level for years could make a huge difference.

Here are FOUR players with vast experience we reckon could do a job in the Celtic first team...

Sebastian Larsson

Seb Larsson is now a free agent after leaving Sunderland one the expiration of his contract at the end of June. Larsson spent six years at the Stadium Of Light, making over 200 appearances for the Black Cats. He's been a regular in the English Premier League since making his debut for Arsenal in 2006 with a long spell at Birmingham City defining his career before his move to Sunderland.

A free-kick specialist who could add composure and technical ability to the heart of the Hoops midfield, he'd be the perfect back-up for the likes of Scott Brown who could do with some more rotation next season after playing out of his skin last term for close to 60 matches.

With 90 caps for his native Sweden, he has vast experience in a continental, international and tournament setting, the kind of high stakes experience that would make him a reliable hand in the UEFA Champions League.

Martin Caceres

Another free agent after a short spell with Southampton in the latter half of last season, Martin Caceres is another elite player with vast experience that could bring real quality to Brendan Rodgers' first team.

The Uruguayan central defender has played for some of the world's biggest clubs with spells at Barcelona, Sevilla and Juventus occupying the last nine years of his playing career.

Now 30 years old and looking for a new club, he could perform the kind of role at Celtic that Kolo Toure played last term; a veteran defender with trophy pedigree and European experience that can guide the Hoops' young defence through important European occasions.

His 70 caps with Uruguay point to player who has the knowledge and know how to play in high pressure situations with the South American side excelling in continental and international competition over the last decade. He started the Copa America final in 2011 when Uruguay lifted the trophy.

Jozo Simunovic is still just 22 and with Dedryck Boyata out for a couple of months now and just Erik Sviatchenko really there to step in, the addition of a central defender is a priority and Caceres appears to tick all the boxes.

Lucas Leiva

Lucas Leiva's ten year contribution to Liverpool was recognised in may when he received a special personalised trophy from the club, presented by Kenny Dalglish, in honour of his service for the Reds over the last decade.

He made close to 350 appearances for Liverpool in that time and often performed to a high level on a consistent basis, even overcoming the odd rough spell or two to emerge as a real fan favourite at the club.

He's of course a player Brendan Rodgers knows well from his time at Anfield and in fact the Celtic boss got some of the best form of his career out of the Brazilian.

Still just 30 years of age but looking for a new home this summer, he has plenty to offer the Hoops in the heart of midfield and would be an excellent defensive option to bring in against teams that need a midfield spoiler deployed against them.
