Liverpool To Hold Victory Parade This Month No Matter EPL And UCL Outcome
The Mayor of Liverpool, Joanne Anderson had already invited the club to take part in a victory parade around the city in preparation for the potential outcome of the season, but following last Saturday's Wembley win, this has been extended to include the FA Cup, which the Reds won at Wembley on Saturday.
The club has officially accepted the offer, meaning that a parade will now definitely go ahead at 4 pm on Sunday, May 29, the day after Liverpool takes on Real Madrid in the Champions League Final in Paris.
This is the only time all players are available due to the majority of them travelling on international duty to represent their respective countries immediately after this date, says the Liverpool Echo.
The parade will also include Liverpool FC Women, who clinched the FA Women's Championship trophy last month.
As the date of the victory parade falls on the anniversary of the Heysel Stadium disaster, throughout the morning of the anniversary Liverpool Football Club, supported by Liverpool City Council, will pay tribute to the 39 supporters who lost their lives on that day. The city council and the Club are working together on those plans.
