A mural featuring former Liverpool favourite Trent Alexander-Arnold has been vandalised just hours ahead of his return to Anfield with new team Real Madrid on Tuesday.

Jude Bellingham said Real Madrid were beaten by "the best-performing team in Europe" as Liverpool's dismantling of the Spanish giants set a new bar in Arne Slot's stunning start at Anfield.

UEFA will refund Liverpool fans who attended last year's Champions League final in Paris, Europe's soccer governing body said on Tuesday after an independent report said they were responsible for the chaos outside the stadium.
