Jurgen Klopp has personally invited Adebayo Akinfenwa to Liverpool’s victory parade at the end of the season.
The Wycombe Wanderers striker received a video message from the German manager after his side clinched promotion into the Championship earlier this week. The Chairboys were victorious in the League One play-off final over Oxford United, seeing them head to the second tier for the first time in the club’s history (via Sky Sports).
Akinfenwa, a lifelong Liverpool supporter, was congratulated by Klopp himself after talking about him in his post-match interview. Now, the forward has been invited to celebrate even further as part of the Reds’ homecoming victory parade.
Plenty of Liverpool fans are loving this idea and are buzzing over Akinfenwa’s genuine support of the club. Some Kopites are even going as far as suggesting the Reds ‘sign him up’ and bring him to Anfield next season. Another supporter has tweeted ‘he’s perfect’ to lift Jordan Henderson on the day of the parade, who is currently out of action with a knee injury, alluding to the striker’s physical stature which he is well known for.
