Liverpool announce Anfield mural unveiling for Sunday ahead of Klopp’s scheduled return

♦Liverpool supporters are well aware of the emotional weight the coming week carries in the club’s history, and Anfield will once again pay tribute in its customary heartfelt fashion.

 

This Sunday’s match against West Ham will be the closest home fixture to April 15, aligning with the 36th anniversary of the Hillsborough disaster.

 

As shared by liverpoolfc.com: “Tributes will take place during the Reds’ Premier League clash with West Ham United on Sunday (April 13) at Anfield. A commemorative mosaic will be revealed on the Kop before kick-off to honor the 97 supporters who lost their lives due to the events of the 1989 FA Cup semi-final versus Nottingham Forest.”

 

In light of the Labour government reportedly scaling back its commitment to the proposed Hillsborough Law, this moment serves as a powerful reminder to raise national—and international—awareness of the tragedy and the continuing fight to prevent similar injustices.

 

The families of the victims had to battle systemic cover-ups to bring the truth to light. The introduction of the Hillsborough Law could shift power, giving ordinary people a fairer chance when confronting state institutions.

 

Displaying the mosaic at Anfield not only honors the memory of those lost but also reignites the public call for justice and legislative change.

 

With Jurgen Klopp rumored to revisit his former stadium before the season wraps up, many anticipate it could coincide with his departure. If he chooses to return more than once, this occasion would be an ideal platform to spotlight the ongoing campaign for the Hillsborough Law.

 

Nearly four decades later, the tragedy in Sheffield still serves as a critical lesson about state accountability—and the need to continue fighting for truth and justice.
