(Reuters) - Liverpool Women have parted ways with manager Matt Beard, the Women's Super League club said on Thursday, with the team seventh in the standings after seven defeats in their 14 games.

Beard, 47, returned to the club in 2021, after claiming back-to-back league titles in his previous spell, gaining promotion back to the WSL in his first season back at Liverpool, but his side have won just four league games in this campaign.
