Andy Burnham welcomed Canadian counterpart and fellow Evertonian Mark Carney to the club’s stadium to watch a Carabao Cup tie.
The Prime Minister held a bilateral meeting with Mr Carney at Everton’s Hill Dickinson Stadium in Liverpool before the team’s third-round game with Wolves on Wednesday (16 September).
After the meeting, which lasted about 45 minutes, the pair both donned blue and white Everton scarves and took their seats in the stands to watch the match.
They greeted supporters as they made their way to their seats, shaking hands and posing for photos.
Mr Burnham invited Mr Carney to watch a game together when the pair spoke in July, shortly after he became Prime Minister.
The Canadian adopted Everton as his team after moving to the UK.
