Liverpool player likes Celtic and Rangers

A Liverpool player also likes Celtic and Rangers.

In news that will silence those who claim the Covid-19 outbreak has put an end to sports reporting, the player said that he used to just like Celtic but now likes Rangers as well.

The player also likes Liverpool, which is fortunate because that's who he plays for.

This story, which is based on one sentence from an interview in GQ magazine, will have the 'Literally zero sport is happening, so there will be no sport to report on' cynics eating their words.

The man said: “Growing up I was Celtic, but now, because of the connection [Steven Gerrard managing Rangers], I’m probably neutral up there now.

"But I’d say my favourite other team would be Barça. I feel as though they’ve got kind of the same values and beliefs as Liverpool."

That connection is the Rangers man who used to be the Liverpool man. The implication being that the Rangers man having once been a Liverpool man has shown the current Liverpool man that he can also like the Rangers men, while continuing to like the Celtic men. And the Barcelona men.

The news will come as a mild 6-second diversion to people who like Celtic, while people who like Rangers will see it as a mild 6-second diversion.
