Two members of Liverpool’s backroom team, Richie Partridge and Andy Massey, will leave the club in March, according to Training Ground Guru.
Massey’s exit was already known, with the Reds’ head of medical services joining FIFA in a new role and Gary O’Driscoll replacing him from Arsenal.
Partridge, who made three first-team appearances for Liverpool in the 2000s, will also move on, though.
The club’s physio is leaving to join up with the Qatar national team, after spending nine years at Anfield in a non-playing capacity.

I think it is clearly a blow to be losing two such well thought of figures behind the scenes at Liverpool.
While Jurgen Klopp and his players are the posters boys for everything good about this team, there is an outstanding group of people doing superb work away from the pitch.
O’Driscoll looks set to be an ideal replacement for Massey, in my opinion – he was ‘hugely popular’ with the Arsenal players – and the hope is that the void left by Partridge is also swiftly filled, too.
It will allow the Reds to keep flourishing, as they look to finally become Premier League champions for the first time.
