Liverpool's Adam Lallana had a special autograph for his biggest fan...team-mate Mamadou Sakho.

The hilarious clip was posted on Liverpool's official Instagram page today, and occurred during the club's trip to the Suncorp Stadium during their pre-season tour of Ausralia.

Sakho seemed absolutely delighted after getting Lallana's signature on his training bib, and even did a little victory jig.

The Reds face Brisbane Roar on Friday, before matches against Adelaide United and a Malaysia Xi.

Liverpool will take on Stoke City in their first Premier League match of the season on 9 August at the Britannia Stadium, hoping to avenge their 6-1 thrashing at the ground on the final day of last season.

The Reds have officially confirmed the numbers that their summer signings will wear during the upcoming season, whilst revealing that Raheem Sterling's No 31 shirt remains vacant following the youngster's switch to Manchester City.

Star signing Roberto Firmino will wear the No 11 shirt, which was most recently worn by flop Oussama Assaidi. Arguably the last top class player to wear the jersey was Jamie Redknapp.

As expected, James Milner has landed the iconic No 7 shirt which has been vacant since the exit of Luis Suarez to Barcelona. Others to wear it include Kenny Dalglish and Kevin Keegan, giving the free transfer from Manchester City much to live up to.

Right-back Nathaniel Clyne takes over Glen Johnson's No 2 shirt while new back-up goalkeeper Adam Bogdan will wear No 34.

Divock Origi, who signed last summer but who was immediately loaned back to Lille, takes the No 27 shirt.

Danny Ings, who was brought in from Burnley to provide competition in attack, will wear No 28.
