Michael Edwards informs Liverpool of exit plan
Michael Edwards has informed Liverpool he wants to LEAVE at the end of this season.
The Athletic reports Edwards' deal will run down at the end of the season and it is said he has already informed Anfield chiefs about his decision to step down.
The expectation at Liverpool is that Edwards will indeed quit, a move that would come as a surprise in light of his superb track record in the role.
It has also been stressed in the same report, however, that the situation is not yet 'finalised', and it is not impossible that Edwards decides to sign a new contract.
But with assistant sporting director Julian Ward having been promoted to work under him last December, the chain of command has already been laid out if he does leave.
No other teams were involved in his choice, the report adds, with Edwards to walk away on good terms and as a respected figure in the game.
