Liverpool unveil memorials for former manager Beard

Liverpool have paid tribute to former women's team manager Matt Beard by unveiling memorials at Anfield and their training ground. Beard, who died at 47 on September 20, 2025, led the club to two consecutive Women's Super League titles in 2013 and 2014, and another in 2022 after winning the FA Women's Championship. He was twice named WSL manager of the season and inducted into the WSL Hall of Fame.

A memorial garden and commemorative tree were unveiled at Melwood, while a match against Fulham on Saturday will support the Together Against Suicide initiative.
