Liverpool are reportedly set to appoint experienced German executive Jorg Schmadtke as their new sporting director.

Michael Edwards and his successor Julian Ward have both walked away from the position at Anfield over the last 12 months and the Reds are keen to bring in a fresh face ahead of what promises to be a crucial summer for the club.

According to The Telegraph, talks between Liverpool and Schmadtke have accelerated, and the 59-year-old is now the leading contender for the role.
