Liverpool are about to embark on a bold new direction, with a new sporting director having agreed his move to Anfield this summer.
It was only 12 months ago that the much-lauded Michael Edwards left his role on Merseyside, having been key for much of the club's recruitment over Jurgen Klopp's tenure. Julian Ward stepped into the sporting director role in his absence – but is set to depart a year into the role, after landing a similar job at Ajax.
