Liverpool's defence of their Premier League crown continues to soar.

He wrote: "Won't be able to attend @ballondorofficial ceremony today for personal reasons, all the best for everyone, enjoy!" The 2022 World Cup winner and his partner, Ailen Cova, are soon expecting their first child together.

Chelsea manager Enzo Maresca has expressed his concern that Liverpool's stunning start to the season may make it "impossible to catch them"
