Celtic and Liverpool have teamed up to stage a club legends game to benefit their respective foundations.
Links between the two giants go back decades after Kenny Dalglish ’s transfer to Anfield in the 70s and both fanbases famously adopted You’ll Never Walk Alone as an anthem. Now famous faces from years gone by will go head-to head in a friendly at Anfield next March.
All proceeds will go to the Liverpool Foundation and the Celtic Foundation to support good causes linked to both, including Forever Reds, which helps former Reds stars in need of care. The game, which could see former Rangers boss Steven Gerrard back in action, will take place at Anfield on Saturday, March 25 (kick-off 3pm). Matt Parish, chief executive of LFC Foundation, said: “We are pleased to announce our seventh home Official Legends Charity Match against Celtic Legends next year and we are very much looking forward to welcoming the LFC family to Anfield for a fun-filled afternoon.
