Monaco Sporting Director Paul Mitchell has held talks with Liverpool about a move to the Premier League club.

Mitchell is likely to leave Monaco after the summer transfer window, as he wants another project.

Meanwhile, the Reds will lose their football director, with Julian Ward deciding to depart in the summer.

Get French Football News reports that Mitchell and Liverpool representatives have been discussing the future.

There is no immediate plan for him to take over at Anfield, as he is committed to Monaco through this summer's window.

However, Liverpool's owners FSG are planning for the long term and may see Mitchell as the ideal man to reshape Jurgen Klopp's squad.
