Liverpool cult hero Daniel Agger shows Anfield love as he gets badge tattooed on his fingers

• e-mail

Daniel Agger was well known at Liverpool for going through the pain barrier for the team and despite leaving the club back in 2014 has done so again with a new tattoo.

The retired Danish defender has added to the 'YNWA' finger tattoo on his right hand with a miniature version of Liverpool's liver bird badge on his right ring and index fingers.

Agger is a qualified tattoo artist himself but in a video he posted on his Twitter page he is shown getting the work done by celebrity inker Ami James.

The retired defender already had 'YNWA' on the fingers of right hand from his time at the club

Despite leaving Liverpool, and subsequently retiring, Agger holds the club dear to his heart

The 'YNWA' tattoo dates back to August 2012 when the Dane was linked with a move away from Anfield but decided to show his desire to stay in ink form.

He said at the time: 'I'd thought about it for a long time. As I said, I feel a part of this club - and I feel a part of this city. 

'I have been here so long now, so it was an easy decision. I am proud to be here and I think my knuckles show that.' 

The Dane shared the video of the work being done by celebrity inker Ami James via Twitter

The 31-year-old retired after a final season at Brondby and is also a professional tattoo artist

Now four years on from his original display of Liverpool love Agger has shown his continued commitment to his former employers.

'It's not only the club, it's also the city,' Agger explains in the video.'It's everything about it. I still miss Liverpool – as a football club but also as a city.'

Agger made 232 appearances for the club during more than eight years at Anfield, scoring 14 goals as he endeared himself to the Reds faithful. He retired in June after spending the final two years of his career at Brondby.
