Liverpool’s media team celebrates South African supporters with a Cape Town-inspired illustration featuring players in a quantum heading to Anfield, sparking amusement and excitement across social media
South Africa (21 October 2025) – Liverpool players spotted navigating the streets of Cape Town… in a quantum! Liverpool FC caught the eye of their South African supporters on Sunday with a playful matchday graphic, continuing the club’s recent trend of Mzansi-inspired content on TikTok.
The post showed star players: Virgil van Dijk, Alexander Isak, Hugo Ekitike, Ryan Gravenberch, and Dominik Szoboszlai, all crammed into a Toyota Quantum minibus taxi. A familiar sight on South African streets, heading toward a sign pointing to Anfield (Liverpool’s home ground). The backdrop featured the iconic Table Mountain, while the taxi’s custom “YNWA – WP” number plate added a distinctly Cape Town flair.

Fans were quick to join in the fun:
Mitch Matyana- “Come Home”
Mitch believes the admin might be South African and therefore needs to “come home.”
