Liverpool’s young striker Samed Yesil has taken to social media to wish his followers around the world a happy Eid festival.

The Germany U21 international posted an image of himself during a game with Luzern along with the caption, “Eid Mubarak to all Muslims around the!”

Yesil shared the same message in Turkish. The Liverpool youngster was born in Germany but is of Turkish descent and is bi-lingual in both languages.

Eid al-Adha is the second of two religious holidays celebrated by Muslims worldwide each year.

The religious holiday centres around the meat from a sacrificed animal being given to the poor and needy.

The young striker has featured for all of Germany’s youth teams from Under-16 to U19 and he is available also to play for the Turkish national team.

The former Bayer Leverkusen man scored three goals in his last two appearances for Liverpool U21’s during pre-season.
