A Liverpool FC staff Christmas party in the city’s Anglican cathedral was shut down early amid reports that suspected drugs paraphernalia were found.
The football club confirmed an “incident” had taken place on Thursday night, adding: “We do not condone or tolerate the use of illegal substances at any of our sites or events.”
None of the club’s players or first team manager Arne Slot were in attendance at the event, which was held for non-footballing staff.
The party was ended by staff at the cathedral, which said in a statement that an “incident” occurred “that was not in line with our values”.
