Liverpool lose member of backroom staff after Robbie Keane raids former club

Former Liverpool striker Robbie Keane has added a highly-valued member of Jurgen Klopp's' backroom staff to his ranks at Israeli Premier League side Maccabi Tel Aviv.

The former Republic of Ireland international, who played for Liverpool during the 2008-2009 season in between spells at Tottenham Hotspur, was appointed as the head coach of the Israeli side in June. The role came just weeks after he left his post as assistant manager at Leeds United following their relegation to the Championship.

The 42-year-old will now be joined in Tel Aviv by Liverpool analyst Dominic Price, who spent over 10 years at Anfield after first joining the club as part of their International Football Academies project in 2011 and later enjoyed success in roles at the club's Kirkby-based Academy. Price will now work as technical director at Maccabi Tel Aviv.
