Former Liverpool chief executive Ian Ayre has revealed how the ‘transfer committee’ worked during his time at the club.
Ayre served as CEO at Anfield for a decade before leaving the club in February 2017. He played a key role in helping bring Jurgen Klopp to the club as manager, as well as his role in transfer dealings, which gained a fair amount of attention while Brendan Rodgers was manager.
The committee was responsible for the identification of potential new players, scouting them and then securing their services. Ayre served on this committee, along with several others including Mike Gordon, Michael Edwards, Dave Fallows, Barry Hunter and the manager.
