NAPLES, Italy -- A group of Liverpool fans have been attacked in the centre of Naples ahead of Wednesday's Champions League game against Napoli.
Merseyside Police confirmed to ESPN FC that a male was taken to hospital as a result, but was released having only suffered minor injuries.
Liverpool are in Naples for the first time since 2010, when three away supporters were treated for knife wounds and four others also suffered injuries.
"We are aware of an incident involving a small group of Liverpool fans and a small group of males on mopeds last night, Tuesday, October 2," a Merseyside Police spokesman told ESPN FC.
