Michael Edwards is reportedly being lined up for a new job in France
Edwards is to step down at Liverpool as the club's sports director with Julian Ward preparing to take over at the club, though the Reds' current transfer expert has not officially stated his next move.
But according to French sources, Ligue 1 side Nice are looking to replace their sporting director Julien Fournier with Edwards. It is expected that Fournier will depart Nice due to his poor relationship with manager Cristophe Galtier, freeing up this position at the club.
