Liverpool have handed the job of assistant manager
to former Bolton boss Sammy Lee, who returns to Anfield for a third
time.
The Reds' playing legend was at the club's Melwood
training complex this morning to start his new job.
Lee, 49, returns to the Reds after being sacked as manager at
the Reebok Stadium earlier in the season.
He has been appointed by boss Rafael Benitez following the
departure earlier this month of first-team coach Alex Miller to
take up a management job in Japan.
As a player Lee won the title, the League Cup and European Cup
during the 1980s before taking on a role as reserve coach and then
first-team coach at the club under Graeme Souness and Gerard
Houllier, respectively.
He effectively replaces Pako Ayesteran, who left the club at the
beginning of the 2007/08 season.
