Liverpool are in Charlotte, North Carolina, preparing for their clash with Borussia Dortmund in the International Champions Cup on Sunday (kick off just after midnight UAE time).

You wouldn’t expect the home of the NFL’s Panthers to be a hot-bed for Redmen support but it seems there are Liverpool fans everywhere.

Thousands of fans have attended the Reds training sessions and serenaded their heroes from the first kick to the last.

Manager Jurgen Klopp was so impressed he took the entire team, including superstar Mohamed Salah, into the stands with the eager fans for a photo. (You can spot that at the end of the video.)

Lanky defender Joel Matip was certainly surprised – and delighted – at the turnout. Watch his reaction below.
