Liverpool announced the appointment of Richard Hughes as their new sporting director. Hughes will leave his post with Bournemouth at the end of the season.
\"I am incredibly proud to be offered this opportunity,\" Hughes said in a Liverpool press release. \"Liverpool FC is a unique club and I\'m grateful to be given a chance to serve it in this capacity.
\"People rightly talk about the rich history this organisation can boast, but it is the present and future which really excites me. Jurgen Klopp is leading an outstanding team and squad and alongside that the commitment to young players and their pathway to the first team is also outstanding.\"
Liverpool also recently hired Michael Edwards as CEO of football.
