Liverpool fan favourite – Stephane Henchoz, is a Swiss football coach and a former international player. Henchoz played as a gifted defender, most recognisably for European giant Liverpool. The Swiss star was capped 72 times for his home nation and played at major tournaments such as Euro 1996 and Euro 2004. Henchoz secured a number of major trophies, mainly at Liverpool. During his time at Anfield, he won the League Cup twice, FA Cup once and UEFA Cup once.

After an impressive stint at Blackburn Rovers, Liverpool did enough to lure Henchoz to the club, for a transfer fee of £3.5million. At Anfield, Henchoz became a regular member of the first team during his nearly six year stay. Henchoz proved to be a highly effective signing and was a popular figure with the Liverpool fans. He formed a legendary defensive partnership with Sami Hyypia that is still talked about to this day. This partnership played an important part in Liverpool’s historic cup treble in 2001, a period which is still one of the most successful years for the Premier League giant. After Liverpool, Henchoz went on to enjoy successful spells at Celtic, Wigan and back to Blackburn.

After retiring, Henchoz instantly became manager of Blackburn Rovers’ U18 team. More recently in 2020, the footballing oracle returned to his home nation of Switzerland to be part of Neuchatel Xamax FCS’ coaching staff. Henchoz’s wealth of experience in the game means that he will continue to enhance the strategies of top level teams.
