Liverpool players took part in a moving tribute to George Floyd on their return to training as they took a knee around the centre circle at Anfield in a gesture of support following the death of the unarmed black man in the US. Squad members posted a picture of the act on their social media accounts with the caption: “Unity is strength #BlackLivesMatter.” The picture of 29 players from the English league leaders was taken during a training session. Star players Virgil van Dijk, Trent Alexander-Arnold and captain Jordan Henderson were among those to post the picture that was retweeted by the official account of Liverpool.
