The screenshot appeared to show Rabiot sitting in the Kenny Dalglish stand, which would have been odd for the player to do.
The Frenchman has often spoken about his love for Anfield, whilst his exclusion from PSG’s squad tonight meant many were convinced.
The PSG merchandise he was sporting appeared to convince many that it was indeed Rabiot who was present at Anfield.
