'I've heard': Sporting director who brought Xabi Alonso to Bayer reacts to Liverpool links

West Ham's Tim Steidten has been linked with a Liverpool sporting director job. The position is now vacant as Jorg Schmadtke left the post after the winter transfer window.

The 44-year-old is known for his work with Bayer as he reportedly played a key role in bringing Xabi Alonso to Leverkusen.

“I've heard that I am supposed to be on the list at Liverpool," Steidten told Sky Sports Deutschland, as quoted by the Liverpool Echo.

“It is one of the biggest clubs in the world, so it's an honour. But so far nobody from Liverpool has contacted me.

“I generally feel very comfortable at West Ham. I quickly realised how intense this league is. Accordingly, we signed the right players in the last transfer windows. The squad is strong, so we can achieve our goals.

“I am looking forward to the next few weeks and months until the end of the season. Of course, we are already planning the next window (at West Ham). What happens in the future, we will see.“
