The name of the 97th Hillsborough disaster victim, who died last year, has been added to Anfield's memorial.

Andrew Devine suffered life-changing injuries in the crush at the 1989 FA Cup semi-final in Sheffield, but survived until his death in July 2021.

A coroner later ruled he was the 97th fatality and unlawfully killed.

Liverpool Football Club said the tribute, which was engraved on Friday, was open to anyone who wished to pay their respects.

He suffered life-changing injuries in the tragedy.

Mr Devine's name had already been added to the memorial located at the club's Kirkby AXA Training Centre.
