On October 6, 2021, Liverpool FC players wore special edition jerseys with 'Futuremakers by Standard Chartered' logo during their English Premier League match against Manchester City. The jerseys will now be signed by the players and auctioned to fans for charitable proceeds, as announced by Standard Chartered, the club's sponsor.

Standard Chartered will swap out its logo on the players' shirts for the 'Futuremakers by Standard Chartered' logo during two games – one for the men's team and one for the women's team. The Women's Team will have the logo in front of their jerseys during their BWSL match against Aston Villa Women on October 13.

Standard Chartered and LFC first came together to kick-off their Perfect Match logo swap initiative for charity in 2012. The logo swap carries on as a standing tradition each season to raise awareness for important causes and support individuals in need.

Between 2019 to 2020, Futuremakers have supported more than 366,000 young people across 35 markets by empowering the next generation to learn, earn and grow. Standard Chartered set out to fundraise and donate a total of USD 75 million to Futuremakers between 2019 to 2023.

Between October 5-24, Standard Chartered will be auctioning off these LFC men's and women's signed, limited-edition Futuremakers shirts in pairs. Fans can get their hands on them by visiting www.charitystars.com/collection/lfc-futuremakers-2021.
