Michael Edwards to step down from Liverpool role
The Michael Edwards era at Liverpool is drawing to a close.
After serving owners Fenway Sports Group for more than 15 years, Edwards will depart the club before the Reds begin their pre-season preparations.
“Edwards’ departure marks the culmination of a planned transition following the completion of key strategic priorities,” a Fenway Sports statement read.
He believes the club remains in a “strong position” as he prepares for his exit.
Edwards famously oversaw a series of landmark transfers during the Jurgen Klopp years. As he prepares to move on, supporters are considering whether he will be missed and the nature of the legacy he leaves behind.
