Comolli first stepped into football recruitment in 1992, beginning his career as a youth coach at Monaco before gradually moving into recruitment and executive roles that would take him across Europe.



His transition into English football came through Arsenal, where he joined as a scout and spent eight years, helping shape the club’s recruitment strategy. Comolli’s career then took him to Anfield in November 2010, when Liverpool appointed him as director of football as the club sought to strengthen their recruitment and rebuild the squad.
