LFC announces appointment of new U23s and U18s coaches

Liverpool FC can confirm Barry Lewtas has been appointed as the new coach of the club's U23s side.

Lewtas, who joined the Reds in 2013, will take over following the departure of Neil Critchley in March.

The 39-year-old worked with a variety of age groups at the Academy before securing the role of U18s coach in June 2018.

His first year in charge saw the team lift the FA Youth Cup, and they were enjoying another successful campaign before the current season was curtailed.

Academy manager Alex Inglethorpe said: “Barry has been at the club for quite a few years now and has progressed through various age groups.
