Liverpool chairman Henry welcomes Dalglish return

Liverpool chairman John W Henry has welcomed the return of Kenny Dalglish.

Henry has expressed his joy at Dalglish's Reds reunion and outlined why the 62-year-old will play an important role in helping move Liverpool forward towards their goals.

"I am delighted to welcome Kenny Dalglish back to Anfield," he told Liverpoolfc.com.

"Kenny is a towering figure in the history of Liverpool Football Club. Along with Bill Shankly, he embodies what the club stands for.

"As a player and a manager, Kenny established his position as a football great. But that is only half the story. His compassion and leadership in the immediate aftermath of Hillsborough brought great solace to the families of the 96. His support of the campaign for justice since 1989 has been unfailing and inspirational and has given him a status that goes far beyond that of a mere sporting figure."
