Reds support Rainbow Laces campaign

The Rainbow Laces initiative aims to make sport everyone's game and ensure that LGBT+ supporters feel welcome and included, with a three-week campaign seeing national teams, leading clubs, top athletes, fans and grassroots players from across sport show their support for the LGBT+ community.

Sunday's Merseyside derby against Everton at Anfield will be LFC's official Rainbow Laces fixture.

Before kick-off, rainbow flags will be carried onto the pitch by local schoolchildren, ahead of Reds boss Jürgen Klopp, who will lead out his team wearing Rainbow Laces.

Rainbow colours will be visible throughout the game, with the Premier League's bespoke rainbow-branded ball plinths, pitch flag, timing boards and LED boards incorporated at various points.
