Liverpool are navigating uncertain times off the pitch at Anfield as FSG look to sell the club, with confirmation that both sporting director Julian Ward and director of research Ian Graham are set to leave the Reds following earlier this week.
Ward ’s resignation was a shock, given he had only succeeded Michael Edwards in the post last summer. And while Graham handed in his notice in the close-season, the exits of both creates a gasping void in Liverpool ’s recruitment team.
Yet it doesn’t change the fact that the Reds are in need of a midfield revamp and indeed plan to overhaul their engine room in 2023, following on from the restructure of their attack in 2023 which saw Luis Diaz, Darwin Nunez and Fabio Carvalho all join the club as Sadio Mane, Divock Origi and Takumi Minamino departed.
