A supposed Liverpool fan has started a petition to have the club’s potential trophy parade staged in London - after claiming the Reds have more supporters in the south than on Merseyside.
Arne Slot's team are on course to lift a second Premier League title in five years after opening up a 13-point lead at the top of the table.
It was estimated that 750,000 fans took to the streets to welcome Jurgen Klopp ’s team home from Madrid with the Champions League trophy in 2019.
With the prevalence of Liverpool FC supporters in the South, moving the title parade to London would simply be a more pragmatic and inclusive approach.

Liverpool were unable to hold a trophy parade when they won the title in 2020 due to Covid-19 restrictions.
"By moving the parade to our nation's capital, more fans would be offered the opportunity to participate in the celebration, extending the sense of community and shared victory.
“Therefore, we propose a reassessment of the location of Liverpool Football Club's title parades to better accommodate a larger portion of the fanbase, and create more inclusive and accessible celebrations.
Sign this petition to help bring the Liverpool FC title parade closer to fans in the South.”
Some Liverpool fans may be tempted to believe that the petition, which was opened on March 3, is the work of a mischievous Evertonian rather than a diehard member of the Kop.
But the club has a huge global fanbase and Liverpool are a lucrative tourist attraction on Merseyside.
