‘We have a barber appointment with Ummut and then we’re going to Anfield. My first visit to Anfield was not for a football game, but to sit in the stands and watch Taylor Swift. So, yeah, I’m not Taylor-made, but Taylor-ready.
‘Let’s go to Anfield and have a fantastic night, a terrific night would be nice, see you there, bye.’
He was then photographed on the ground in a video posted on X, sporting lover-themed spectacles.

After answering the question, he reportedly erupted into song in front of the audience, covering Swift’s ‘Shake It Off’.
Swift had been performing in Edinburgh before going to Liverpool, and her first gig in the city was on Thursday.
After three gigs at Anfield on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday, she’ll go to Cardiff, London, and Dublin before appearing in Amsterdam.
