The solicitors representing a group of Liverpool fans who were involved in the chaos outside the Stade de France during the Champions League final in 2022 have told fans they are awaiting judgement from the civil courts.

In the email, seen by the ECHO, the firm said: "We are continuing to wait for the judgment from the Court following the hearing in July 2024.
We anticipate that there may be media interest in the judgment and journalists who would like to speak with our clients about their experiences at the Stade de France.
