Roy Hodgson will be appointed Liverpool’s new boss in time to welcome some of the players back for pre-season training on Friday.
It is believed the majority of Liverpool’s senior players are happy with Hodgson’s impending arrival, but they won’t be back at Anfield until the end of July following a break after the World Cup.
While managing director Christian Purslow has been concentrating on finding Rafa Benitez’s successor, chairman Martin Broughton has been focused on attracting buyers to take over from George Gillett and Tom Hicks.
One of Broughton’s tasks has been to knock down Hicks’ claims that the Americans were looking for £800million.
He has been in advanced talks with parties in the Middle East, including Dubai International Capital, and believes a deal could be done for £500m.
