Jen Chang has parted company with Liverpool.

The Daily Mail reports Liverpool's controversial communications director Chang has left the club following the Twitter storm with spoof blogger 'Duncan Jenkins'.

The club were forced to apologise to Jenkins, real name Sean Cummins, for the "inappropriate actions" of Chang, after they met in a Manchester restaurant.

A club statement read: "Jen Chang has left Liverpool Football Club by mutual consent and has returned to the US for family reasons.

"Jen brought a fresh perspective to the overall communications function through the use of a variety of media channels, including social media and blogs.

"He reviewed and refocused the Liverpool Ladies and created a new impetus in relation to their structure, organisation and future playing strategy.

"We would like to thank Jen for his contribution to Liverpool Football Club during his time here and wish him well in his future career back in the US.

"Jen would like to thank everyone he has worked with during his time at Liverpool for their support and respect and wishes the club every success."
