Former Liverpool manager Brendan Rodgers and his estranged wife Susan have agreed a settlement after becoming involved in a dispute over money in a family court, a judge has been told.
Lawyers representing Mrs Rodgers told Judge Martin O’Dwyer that an agreement had been reached at a private hearing in the Central Family Court in London today.
No detail of the dispute or the settlement was revealed.
Both Mr and Mrs Rodgers were in court but neither made any comment after the hearing.
At a hearing in May a judge was said to have made a ruling on the amount of maintenance Mr Rodgers, 42, should pay to his former spouse.

Details were released at the time by Vardags, the law firm representing Mrs Rodgers.
A spokeswoman for the firm said the Rodgers’ relationship had broken down.
She said the couple had been together for more than 20 years and married for more than 10 years.
Lawyer Catherine Thomas added: “Susan is saddened that after a relationship spanning 24 years she had to go to court to secure sufficient maintenance from her husband.”
Rodgers, originally from County Antrim, is now in a relationship with Liverpool FC’s former travel manager Charlotte Hind.
The pair were pictured earlier this year on holiday in New York and at a birthday party for Reds star Martin Skrtel.
She was a regular guest at in the directors box at Anfield before Rodgers was sacked as manager in October.
