It’s not often you’d be asked to shell out £14,490 for a feature phone, even when it’s made of 22-carat gold, comes encrusted with diamonds and a sapphire crystal screen. However, stamp it with Liverpool FC, serve it up in a presentation box and make them a limited edition of 250 and suddenly you’ve got a bunch of players, WAGs and Anfield box owners wallets a-twitching. Ian Rush is said to be first on the list.

The phone itself, as made by Galentia, is most likely a bunch of arse and I can’t see so much as a camera on it let alone any HSDPA abilities but, then, that’s not the point. The Liverpool FC Legends Edition handset comes with 18 diamonds drilled into with each one representing one of Liverpool’s league titles. Presumably they waited until now to make sure they weren’t going to be one short.
