After the news emerged that Julian Ward will be leaving his role as Liverpool’s sporting director at the end of the season, attention is switching to who will be his replacement.
Reports on Wednesday emerged that Sven Mislintat has become a potential candidate to take on the role at Anfield. The Reds will already be searching for a possible replacement for Ward, who will depart after just one year in the job.
Mislintat has worked with Jurgen Klopp in the past, having spent a decade as a scout at Borussia Dortmund. The 50-year-old has since had a two-year spell as head of scouting at Arsenal, before he left in 2019.
