Liverpool boss Brendan Rodgers says Dr Steve Peters will remain a key part of his staff.
Peters is regarded as the country's leading sports psychiatrist and was drafted in by Rodgers in the autumn of 2012.
"We have a great professional team behind the team," said Rodgers. "The notion for me was managers are mostly dominant and leaders. You know 90 per cent but you can't know everything.
"It's very important you have the team around you to fill those gaps. Every club I've been at I have always worked with a neurologist or sports psychologist. Coming to Liverpool it was important we got in the best.
"When I first met Steve he was not sure about football because he'd always been kept at arm's length and the experiences he had in football very briefly were not very good. But we asked him to come here, he's done that and we work extremely well with him.
"I have a very close relationship in terms of the importance of the role. He asked my permission to work with England. He realises and understands he's got someone who knows about psychology and the confidence players require to perform and the mental skills element involved."
