Liverpool have moved to appoint Will Spearman as the club’s new director of research.
Spearman, who is currently the Reds’ lead data scientist, has been promoted to the new role and will begin his post from May. He will replace Dr Ian Graham, who had previously held the role since 2012.
Dr Graham has been a highly influential figure at Liverpool since his appointment. He announced his intention to leave Anfield back in November, but agreed to continue to work until May to give the club time to find a successor.
