“Strategically, we know what type we want. The identity of the team is pretty clear and all it is is trying to improve on that along with the continuing development of some of the players who are doing well now.
“We’re thinking about the process of getting in a few players and bedding them in, having them up and running by the time you come back in for pre-season.”
Rodgers has no fears over Moussa Dembele leaving, despite growing interest and has made it clear players will not be sold at anything less than the true market value.
Virgil van Dijk moved to Southampton for £13million last year, but he is now tipped for another transfer involving a far higher fee.
Rodgers is coy when asked if Celtic have accepted a little less than the going rate for players when selling to England in the past, but he is sure it will not happen in the future.
He added: “The different position the club is in now, with all due respect, is that I know the market and the level.
“If I see a player here and I think he’s worth £30million-plus then he’s worth £30million-plus. We don’t need to shift him for £10million.
“They don’t need the intermediate club to go. I would like to think that we can get the market value.”
