He’s going global

Football fans in the US might be preparing themselves for the arrival of Liverpool captain Steven Gerrard, the Anfield icon will join Robbie Keane in the soccerball franchise that is the LA Galaxy, but another Reds player made his face known to audiences across the pond last night.

Liverpool right-back Glen Johnson might not have been at Texas himself but a prankster decided that the world really needs to see his face.

Johnson is expected to leave the club this summer after talks have stalled over a new contract but it seems that one fan at Wrestlemania has been helping to boost the ‘Johnson brand’ in the US and A.

Barcelona and PSG were recently linked with the defender, we laughed also after hearing this, but Johnson might just start to consider a move into WWE territory because he’s clearly popular with their fans.

Paddy Power stayed up all night live tweeting the events at Wrestlemania 31 and spotted this.

Take a look.
