Liverpool F.C. tackles Tron boss over partnership claims

Liverpool Football Club has denied agreeing a partnership with the Tron Foundation, the company behind cryptocurrency Tron.

This followed a tweet by Tron CEO Justin Sun featuring a video invitation from Liverpool F.C. complete with his company’s logo. Sun stated that he was looking forward to exploring an official partnership and that more details would be released shortly.

Misha Lederman, Co-founder of Tron-related startup IAmDecentralized, claimed that this “would be beyond massive for crypto to say the least…I can already see the Tron logo on that red @LFC shirt at Anfield.”

However, a Liverpool spokesperson said: “Liverpool Football Club has confirmed that it does not have a partnership with Tron.”
