Christian Purslow stands down at Liverpool as John Henry starts rebuilding work

Christian Purslow has left Liverpool as they attempt to rebuild at Anfield.

A club statement read: 'Liverpool FC confirms that following the successful sale of the club, Christian Purslow has decided to stand down from his temporary position as managing director. Christian will remain as a non-executive director and will act as a special adviser to the new owners.'

'New England Sports Ventures Chairman Tom Werner said: 'We are delighted Christian has accepted our offer to help us and the Club, given his great experience and love for Liverpool FC. We will now begin a global search process for a Chief Executive Officer.'

Purslow said : 'I came to LFC to lead the Club through a sale process to get the best overall deal including, vitally, the removal of the debt. I am immensely proud of what we have all achieved. I now look forward to assisting the Owners in any way I can at this exciting time as they drive the Club forward to a bright future.'
