Merseyside Police  are asking for anyone who has seen Christopher or has any information to contact 101 or @MerPolCC with reference 0273 of June 28.

It is believed that he has links to the city centre.

Despite warnings to fans not to celebrate the team's famous league victory in large groups, huge crowds gathered in Liverpool last week and weekend.

Thousands of people celebrated on the city's waterfront on Friday, ignoring restrictions on mass gatherings because of the coronavirus pandemic.

Manager Jurgen Klopp said in an open letter in the Liverpool Echo on Monday he "did not love" the scenes at Pier Head.

Yesterday Matthew Egglesden, 19, appeared before District Judge Paul Healey at Liverpool Magistrates' Court charged with criminal damage by arson.

He is accused of firing a firework at the Royal Liver Building which then caught ablaze during the celebrations.

In total £10,000 of damage was caused to the Grade 1 listed building.
