Michael Beale is delighted being named new Liverpool U21 coach.
The former U16 coach was appointed to the position in conjunction with Alex Inglethorpe's changing role to Academy director, with a structural reshuffle taking place at the Kirkby complex.
"It's a really exciting club to be at right now, not just at first-team level but within the Academy as well," Beale told Liverpoolfc.com.
"We've got a host of young players who are progressing nicely, and like all the staff I get a huge buzz driving in through the gates each morning.
"For the last 18 months I've worked closely with Alex, who has done an amazing job, and in fact my first group at Liverpool featured a lot of the players in the current U21 squad, so it's nice to be working with them again.
"I've got a good understanding of what these players need before they take the next step towards the first team."
