Six-year-old Liverpool fan James dressed up as his favourite player, Brazilian goalkeeper Alisson Becker, for his primary school’s Halloween disco.
The youngster, from the Isle of Man, even had a drawn-on beard to complete the look – and he was overjoyed to receive acknowledgement from his hero.
Dad Tristan Ringham told JOE.co.uk, after the goalkeeper tweeted his approval:
James found out this morning and has been bouncing.
He comes to most games and just watches Alisson, when he plays himself he copies all the stretches during the game.
He’s a tad obsessed, being a ‘keeper himself.
