Liverpool fans FUME as murals - including one designed to promote foodbanks - are defaced with blue paint and racist slurs ahead of Merseyside derby clash with Everton

Murals including one designed to promote foodbanks in Liverpool have been defaced with blue graffiti and vile slurs on the day of the Merseyside derby.

Shocking footage shared by Andy Heaton, who works on The Anfield Wrap podcast, shows a mural of Trent Alexander Arnold has been vandalised with blue spraypaint, including the letters 'EFC' and other graphic imagery.

Another depicting Liverpool star Mohamed Salah has been targeted with a racial slur.

Across the street, a mural dedicated to Liverpool's 2-1 victory over Leeds in the FA Cup final at Wembley, featuring legendary former Reds forward Ian St John, has been covered with blue paint and nasty insults.
