Chelsea blow as former Liverpool transfer chief Michael Edwards set to spurn any job offer for some time out

, Chelsea blow as former Liverpool transfer chief Michael Edwards set to spurn any job offer for some time out

LIVERPOOL’S former transfer guru Michael Edwards is ready to take this season away from the game despite being in great demand.

Edwards quit the Kop and has been chased by Chelsea and foreign clubs.

Edwards is set to take some time away from football

But the 43-year-old wants time to consider his options after a gruelling 11 years at Anfield.

He left Merseyside last summer and has been heavily linked with taking up a role at Stamford Bridge.

But that now seems highly unlikely given his reluctance to take any job for the time being.

Edwards also worked with Portsmouth and later Tottenham, but made his name in Merseyside as a top talent spotter.

He brought the likes of Mo Salah, Sadio Mane, Virgil van Dijk and Allison to Liverpool.

Meanwhile, Chelsea have undergone a number of changes at board level following the departure of Roman Abramovich and arrival of new owner Todd Boehly.

Club director Marina Granovskaia and technical and performance advisor Petr Cech both left.

And American Boehly appointed himself as temporary sporting director.

Manager Thomas Tuchel was then sacked early on in the season and replaced by Graham Potter.

It came just weeks after a record-breaking transfer window in which the Blues spent more than £250million.
