Merseyside Police have released CCTV images of a man they want to talk to in connection with the assault of Liverpool goalkeeper Shamal George and his brother.
George, the Reds’ Under-23s glovesman, suffered facial injuries during an attack in Liverpool city centre two months ago.
His brother was also left with similar injuries after the Saturday, March 9 assault.
Police were called to Red Door, a bar on Berry Street, in the early hours of the morning after the alleged assault of a 28-year-old male.
