The family of Sean Cox have thanked Liverpool for rolling out the 'red carpet' for him after he attended last night’s Champions League win over Villarreal.
It's now been four years since Reds fan Mr Cox was set upon outside his beloved Anfield by an Italian thug. The dad-of-three had travelled over from his home in Ireland for the Reds' Champions League semi-final against AS Roma back in May 2018.
However, Mr Cox was subjected to a brutal, unprovoked attack on Walton Breck Road outside the Kop shortly before the match. It left Mr Cox, from Dunboyne, Co Meath, in a coma with brain injuries which left him having to learn how to speak and move again.
