Liverpool moved to condemn homophobic chants directed towards Norwich City midfielder Billy Gilmour during a Premier League game on Saturday.

Gilmour, who is on loan at Norwich from Chelsea for the season, was the subject of the offensive chant by Reds supporters.

The Reds secured all three points in the game, winning 3-0, but the club was swift to call out inexcusable behaviour from those in the stands.

Liverpool said in a statement: "The chant is offensive and inappropriate a message we have repeatedly communicated alongside Kop Outs.

"We urge supporters to remember the inclusive values of the club and to refrain from using it in the future."
