Sven Mislintat 'emerges as candidate' to become next Liverpool sporting director

Former Borussia Dortmund chief scout Sven Mislintat is reportedly eyeing a reunion with Jurgen Klopp having expressed an interest in becoming Liverpool's next sporting director.

Mislintat worked with Klopp at the Bundesliga side between 2008 and 2015 where he oversaw Dortmund's ongoing policy of signing and developing young players before selling them on for huge profits.
