Kenny Dalglish is reportedly set to return to Anfield to work alongside manager Rafael Benitez in an advisory role, according to the Sunday Mirror.
The British tabloid claims that it was Benitez’s idea to bring Dalglish in and that he will work predominantly in youth development, but will also use his vast experience to advise the Spaniard.
The move is likely to be welcomed by Liverpool fans for whom Dalglish remains a hero on Merseyside.
The Scot was the last manager to win the league for the Reds and was also one of the finest players in the club’s history.
Reports last week had suggested that Newcastle United manager Alan Shearer had wanted to bring in Dalglish at St James’ Park in a similar advisory role. However, it now appears that he will instead move to Anfield.
The 58-year-old spent six years managing Liverpool, winning three league titles and two FA Cups.
He left the club in 1991, before taking over at Blackburn Rovers, who he also guided to Premier League title glory in 1995.
After leaving Ewood Park, Dalglish had spells in charge of Newcastle and Celtic but will no doubt be relishing a return to the game with his former side.
