(GSM) – Liverpool manager Rafa Benitez says the arrival of new chairman Martin Broughton is a sign that the club is moving forward. Benitez says Liverpool are currently making positive progress after being put up for sale.
The news was confirmed by the Anfield club and Barclays Capital will also be offering advice to Reds co-owners George Gillette and Tom Hicks as they look for a buyer.
Gillette, Hicks and Benitez have seen their relationship deteriorate over the years. But Benitez, who emphasized that he wants to keep focused on football, believes that the latest news from the Merseyside club are positive for the future.
He said,”We have a new chairman and he is in charge of these issues.
“At this moment, for me as a manager, I have to concentrate on the West Ham game.
“I think the club is moving forward and that is positive. It is important for the club to move forward. It could be good news.”
New chairman Broughton has already calmed the speculation on the Reds stars claiming that they, alongside Benitez, will be staying at Anfield.
