Amputee footballers played keepy-uppy with Mo Salah ahead of Liverpool’s Uefa Super Cup clash against Chelsea, with players from both sides joining in.

Only a few days ago the Liverpool superstar was shocked when fan Louis Fowler, 11, who was trying to get the Liverpool striker’s attention, while he was driving out of the club’s training base on Saturday, ran into the post.

The Reds fan fell and “busted his nose”, his stepfather Joe Cooper said.

They were “gobsmacked” when Salah soon turned up at their home nearby to check on Louis’ condition.

Wonderful ❤️

In a series of videos tweeted by the clubs and the Uefa Foundation, the kids can been seeing enjoying kickabouts and keepy-uppy sessions with players including Salah, Sadio Mane and N’golo Kante.
