Schmadtke will take over from Julian Ward, who is leaving after more than a decade at Anfield that featured Premier League and Champions League titles. Mike Gordon, the president of Fenway Sports Group, the club&rsquo;s US-based owners, told Liverpool&rsquo;s website that Schmadtke &ldquo;will bring a wealth of knowledge and experience into a role in which such qualities can only be beneficial both to him and us.&rdquo;&nbsp;
Liverpool manager Klopp, speaking earlier this month when asked about the possibility of compatriot Schmadtke joining the club, said: &ldquo;I know he is a good guy and a smart guy. Very good at what he did in Germany, definitely, very successful.&rdquo;
