Chief executive Parry leaving Liverpool

LIVERPOOL, England(AP) Liverpool chief executive Rick Parry is leaving at the end of the season in another sign of the off-field power struggles within the club.

The club announced Parry's departure Friday without saying why he was leaving, but the move appeared to be linked to his tense relations with American co-owner Tom Hicks.

His departure increases the likelihood that manager Rafa Benitez will stay at the club. Benitez has been seeking greater control over transfers and has so far declined to sign a new contract.
