Liverpool were the deserved Premier League champions but amid the coronavirus pandemic, had to wait for much longer than expected to get their hands on the EPL crown. The trophy will be presented to Jurgen Klopp’s men by Reds legend Sir Kenny Dalglish on a special podium surrounded by special banners made by fans.

Fans will not be allowed inside the stadium to take part in the celebrations in order to maintain the social distancing protocols amid the COVID-19 epidemic. Even Liverpool’s request of having player’s families attend the presentation was turned down by the city’s council.
However, with the focus mainly on title ceremony, Liverpool still have a job to do in the field as they are looking to equal Manchester City’s record of most wins in a single Premier League season. Jurgen Klopp’s team needs to win both their remaining matches in the league to tie that extraordinary feat.
