There are many things fans may resort to to try and get their idols' autographs, and the Liverpool fans in Singapore are getting creative.

In a TikTok video posted on Jul. 30, Liverpool fans during the open training session at the National Stadium on Jul. 29, tried their hardest to get autographs from Liverpool stars like Mo Salah and Alisson Becker.

Those seated higher up did not want to miss out on the opportunity to get their jerseys signed, so they got creative and tied them on raffia strings, before lowering them down the stands in hopes of getting them signed.

Some even attached Sharpies to the string so the players had something to sign the shirt in.

One netizen joked in the comment section that they would be selling raffia strings outside the National Stadium for fans next year.

More than 15,000 attended Liverpool's training session

Thousands of Liverpool fans gathered to watch Liverpool's open training session on Jul. 29.

Fans were already queuing outside the National Stadium at 6pm when the session only started at 8:30pm.

Even Presidential hopeful George Goh was in attendance and was seated in the stands with his son.

After the training session, the players walked around the stadium to greet fans, and a few lucky fans walked away with selfies and autographs from the players.

On Jul. 30, Liverpool beat Leicester City 4-0, and the game had 28,597 spectators in the stands.

The Reds will face Bundesliga champions FC Bayern Munich on Aug. 2.
