Liverpool boss Rafa Benitez has continued to reshape his backroom team.

Eduardo Parra Garcia will join the technical staff as Fitness Coach with specific emphasis on rehabilitation work after deciding to leave his position with Celta Vigo to take up the offer of a new challenge at Anfield.

"It's a dream come true for me to come and work with Rafa Benitez and the backroom staff at Liverpool FC," he told liverpoolfc.tv.

"I know all about Liverpool, the history, the passion of its amazing fans and of course the quality of its great players. I am really excited about working here."

Joining Eduardo as a new face at the club for the coming campaign will be Ivan Ortega, who will take up a position within the medical team as a Sports Therapist.

Ivan's previous position was also with Celta Vigo, where he was responsible for physiotherapy at first team level for the past two seasons.

"I am thrilled to have been offered the opportunity to work in such a fantastic Club. Everyone knows Liverpool in Spain and around the world," he said. "Although it's a new country and a new environment for me, I can't wait to get started."
