LONDON (Reuters) - Liverpool great Kenny Dalglish is to have a stand named after him at Anfield in recognition of his contribution to the club as player and manager. The Premier League club said the Centenary Stand would be renamed later this year, on a date to be determined, in the 66-year-old Scot's honour to mark Liverpool's 125th anniversary. "His values are Liverpool's values - he represents what is best about this football club." Dalglish joined Liverpool from Celtic in 1977 and made 515 appearances, scoring 172 goals. "King Kenny" won eight league championships, three European Cups, two FA Cups, five League Cups and one UEFA Super Cup in his career at Anfield.
