“But we heard, there were no talks with Liverpool, there was little contact, but we heard no, he’s not your next sporting director.
“He was the sporting director of Stuttgart, in the past he worked also for [Borussia] Dortmund like Jurgen Klopp did,” Falk exclusively told Empire of the Kop.
He only replaced Michael Edwards at the beginning of the season and it appeared that he would be in charge of our transfer business for the foreseeable future.
Mislintat, meanwhile, completed some phenomenal transfer business during his time at Dortmund – the likes of Pierre Emerick-Aubameyang and Shinji Kagawa were signed by the Bundesliga outfit under his guidance so you’d therefore understand why Falk’s latest update may come as a blow to some Liverpool supporters.
The former Arsenal scout has been linked with a move to Anfield to replace Julian Ward when he leaves his role at the end of the season but those rumours have been quashed by the German journalist.
