Former Borussia Dortmund chief scout Sven Mislintat has emerged as a candidate to replace Julian Ward as Liverpool’s sporting director.
The 50-year-old shared a healthy working relationship with Jurgen Klopp during the pair’s time at Borussia Dortmund between 2008 and 2015 and is said to be eyeing a reunion with the Liverpool boss.
According to reports in Germany, Mislintat, who left his position as sporting director at Stuttgart on Wednesday, is exploring the possibility of becoming Ward’s successor at Anfield.
