Damien Comolli claims he was axed from his role as Liverpool’s director of football for signing Jordan Henderson.
Comolli was responsible for bringing Henderson to Anfield in a £16m deal in 2011.
The midfielder struggled during his first season and the Frenchman claims the club’s owner, Fenway Sports Group, responded by relieving him of his duties.
Henderson went on to become a key member of Liverpool’s first-team, going on to succeed Steven Gerrard as the club captain in 2015, and on Tuesday night will lead England for the first time in their World Cup qualifier against Slovenia.
