Liam Gallagher’s son Gene Gallagher was spotted sporting a Manchester City shirt as he enjoyed a game of football with This Morning presenter Dermot O’Leary.

The pair showed off their skills on the pitch in north London, with Gene’s top sure to get the nod of approval from dad Liam, a famous and vocal supporter of the club.

Meanwhile Dermot wore an Arsenal away jersey from the 2020/21 season underneath his red vest, appearing to play for the opposition during their friendly match.

Gene, 21, and 49-year-old broadcaster Dermot were cheered on by Gene’s mum Nicole Appleton and Dermot’s wife Dee Koppang, who was snapped wrapped up in a cosy sheepskin coat and beige knit jumper.

The former Oasis front man’s lookalike son has also been enjoying the Halloween celebrations this weekend, being photographed at Annabel’s star-studded bash on Friday night with pals.

He then shared a picture of the group dressed up in the kitchen for a lower-key affair on Saturday night.

Earlier this year, Gene proved he was a chip off the old block as he performed on the drums during his dad’s gig at Manchester’s Etihad Stadium in June.

The youngster reportedly played along on The River, with both his parents proudly sharing a photo from the event.

‘Good afternoon Manchester,’ wrote Liam on the photo posted to his Instagram grid, while ex-wife All Saints star Nicole re-shared it and gushed: ‘My boy!! Soo proud!!💙 @genegallagher xx’

Liam and Nicole tied the knot in 2008 after dating for nearly eight years and welcoming Gene in July 2001.

They divorced in 2014, and Nicole went on to marry new husband Stephen Haines last year, with whom she shares a two-and-a-half-year-old daughter.
