It will be the end of an era when Michael Edwards leaves Liverpool at the close of the season.
The 42-year-old has been a key figure for the Reds over the last decade and instrumental on the recruitment front since taking the sporting director role five years ago.
The good news for Liverpool is there was a clear succession plan in place with assistant sporting director Julian Ward replacing Edwards following his departure. "I had always planned to cap my time at the club to a max of 10 years," said Edwards.
