BRENDAN RODGERS has finally sold his luxury English mansion on Sir Alex Ferguson's former street but suffered a £50,000 loss.

The Celtic boss spent £3.95million in 2022 on the Cheshire property - but it has now been snapped up by Liverpool star Alexis MacAllister.

Rodgers put the house up for sale for offers over £4.2m last August but after struggling to find a buyer reduced the asking price in January.

Documents show the former Liverpool boss sold the house to midfielder MacAllister, 25, last month for £3.9m.

This amounts to a £50,000 loss.

Legendary Manchester United manager Fergie put his home on the same street up for sale for £3.5m last November.

Fergie had to slash £250,000 to find a buyer for the property which was eventually snapped up in April.

Both properties were on an exclusive street in Wilmslow, Cheshire.

Rodgers' stunning property comes with five bedrooms, a gym, landscaped gardens, a double garage and a bar area.

It also features CCTV, underfloor heating, air conditioning in most of the bedrooms, electronically operated blinds and speakers in the ceilings.

Property agent Sofia Da Silva said: “Immaculately presented to a very high specification, every part of this property is finished exceptionally.

A description of the mansion added: “An exceptional double gable-fronted contemporary residence finished to an uncompromising standard located on one of Wilmslow’s most prestigious roads.”

Rodgers was the victim of a terrifying robbery at his £1.6m home in Bearsden, near Glasgow, in 2019 just after he left the Celtic job for Leicester.

He was not in the property but his family were forced to hide in a bathroom as the robbers stormed in and swiped medals.

Rodgers rejoined Celtic to replace Ange Postecoglou who left for Tottenham and sealed a league and cup double.

Ferguson, who also managed Aberdeen, moved to a £1.2m house near to his son Darren so he could be closer to his grandchildren in the village of Goostrey, Cheshire.
