Michael Edwards is close to securing Liverpool agreement.

Liverpool are working behind the scenes to prepare the structure for next season, and fans will be thrilled with what Fabrizio Romano has just shared.

Jurgen Klopp will leave the club at the conclusion of the season, and any next manager would face a daunting assignment in filling his absence. However, as we have already demonstrated, a correct system and structure can make a significant difference.

A manager’s job gets much easier when he has a knowledgeable sporting director and someone who oversees the club’s day-to-day operations. In that circumstance, the manager may concentrate entirely on his players and winning games.

That is why Liverpool is so eager to employ the appropriate people and establish the necessary structure before hiring a new manager.

According to Fabrizio Romano, Liverpool is close to completing an agreement with Michael Edwards, the brain behind Liverpool’s success.

Edwards is expected to be more than just a transfer guru, overseeing Liverpool‘s football operations, despite his initial reluctance to return.
Romano claims that the last deals have been discussed, and his appointment is close. Richard Hughes, 51, is also “ready to accept” an offer from the Reds to join

in a new-look Liverpool squad. He wrote on

“Liverpool are nearing a definitive agreement to bring Michael Edwards back to the club, according to an exclusive report. It’s almost here, the final details have been worked out, and the club is feeling extremely confident.

“Richard Hughes ready to accept and join Edwards as part of new Liverpool structure.”
The roles of Michael Edwards and Richard Hughes

Edwards wants more control at the club, which means he will be responsible for much more. He will be less active in transfers and more in control of the club’s football operations.

If he joins the Reds, Hughes is anticipated to follow suit. The 51-year-old will replace the vacant sporting director position. He was the technical director at AFC Bournemouth before leaving the position earlier this week.

Simply said, Hughes will be in charge of transfer negotiations and will be highly regarded by Edwards. If Liverpool can clinch a contract for both of them, it is likely that they will work hard to get Xabi Alonso to the club.
