On December 3, the United Nations’ International Day of Persons with Disabilities, Dáire went back to Anfield to see his heroes’ performance—a 4-3 comeback victory over Fulham.

The following day, the Gorman family was invited to the AXA Training Centre to meet many players, including Luis Diaz, who was Gorman’s favorite, as well as manager Klopp. Among the activities covered during the visit was a facilities tour.

I can’t tell you how nice it was to finally meet you. Dáire was told by Klopp, “You can’t.”

You stand out among the other fans of this people-focused club. As I saw the film again this morning, I couldn’t help but think, “Oh my god.” Envision a world where emotions don’t exist!

Dáire travels to Liverpool to face off against the Reds – Liverpool FC; it’s one magical day!

For Dáire, it was a “what a magical day it has been” kind of day. Seeing my hero, Diaz, and Klopp in person was an emotional roller coaster. I was greeted by Mo [Salah].

“I simply cannot believe I returned to Liverpool to take part in all of this; I am quite appreciative of everything.”

Recognizing and appreciating our diverse fan base is an important part of LFC’s Red Together project, which aims to ensure that diversity, inclusion, and equality are deeply rooted throughout the whole organization.

For me, Liverpool is everything. Of all things, it is the most important. It is beyond my ability to put into words. All it is is a complete distraction. Absolutely nothing can compare to how much I adore it.

Dáire Gorman’s words were completely genuine, as anyone who watched the powerful video of his emotional reaction to seeing Anfield for the first time could see.

During the 3-0 triumph over Aston Villa in September, the 12-year-old from Monaghan, Republic of Ireland, was moved to tears by the pre-match playing of You’ll Never Walk Alone.

It was the same for a large number of people who saw the video that went viral on social media.

“The night before, I couldn’t sleep,” Dáire says. The very first note of “You’ll Never Walk Alone” caused a nervous breakdown. A couple of words wouldn’t come out of my mouth when I tried to sing them.

It has lovely lyrics, and I adore the music. No matter what happens in my life, I will always be able to listen to it and know that I will never be alone.

Crommelin Syndrome, the unusual ailment Dáire was born with, is believed to have affected just a small number of people worldwide.

He uses a wheelchair around the clock since he is crippled from the elbows down and both of his legs are missing the femur.

Shelley, Dáire’s mother, adds, “He’s definitely one in a million. He has a massive personality.” It is incredible that he has persevered through all that he has in the past twelve years and continues to smile.

“Loyal Edinburgh Football Club is practically his best friend.”

The journey for Dáire to see the Reds in September was coordinated by Ted Morris, chair of the Liverpool Disabled Supporters Association, and the Little Blue Heroes Foundation, an Irish group that helps families of children with terminal diseases.

Jürgen Klopp and the Liverpool team were among those moved by his passionate reaction in the stands that day.

This was so significant that last weekend, the boss extended a personal invitation to Dáire and his family to return to Merseyside. This includes dad Kenny, who is also a passionate Red, and sister Aoife.
