Liverpool and Everton have condemned the defacing of murals after offensive graffiti was painted on multiple buildings before Saturday's Merseyside derby.
Murals including those of Trent Alexander-Arnold, Jordan Henderson and Mohamed Salah were vandalised in the build-up to the match, with racist graffiti identified.
The two Liverpool clubs have said they will work with Merseyside police to identify those responsible, adding that "hate has no place in football."
"Both Everton and Liverpool Football Clubs jointly condemn the defacing of buildings and murals ahead of the Merseyside derby," a joint statement from the clubs read.
