Liverpool have suffered an early blow in their process to replace Jurgen Klopp.
Last week, Liverpool’s future was thrown into chaos after it was confirmed that Klopp is stepping down as the club’s manager at the end of the 23/24 season.
During an emotional interview, Klopp said he was ‘running out of energy’ and would not be able to do the job ‘again and again and again’.
Since the news broke, the likes of Xabi Alonso, Roberto de Zerbi and Ruben Amorim have all been linked with the Anfield job.
On Tuesday afternoon, transfer specialist Fabrizio Romano gave an update on the situation and it has been revealed that Liverpool have suffered an early blow.
Romano wrote on social media: “EXCLUSIVE: Liverpool have made contact with Michael Edwards over the weekend. FSG plan was to offer to be in charge of the restructure at the club.
“Understand Edwards has rejected #LFC proposal as he’s not interested even in a more senior role as of today.”
During Klopp’s time in charge of the Reds, Michael Edwards was an integral part as he occupied the role of sporting director.
Edwards is often regarded as the brains behind the club’s impressive recruitment.
