Fans of singer Liam Payne, who passed away at the age of 31 after falling from the balcony of his hotel in Argentina, are requesting a memorial to be erected in England in his honor.
After a lengthy repatriation process in Argentina, Liam’s body is now on its way to England for a funeral to be held in his hometown of Wolverhampton.
Now, local residents are asking the authorities to erect a permanent tribute to the singer in the city.
As of last Tuesday (November 5), the petition requesting the tribute had already gathered more than 4,600 signatures and stated: “The recent passing of Liam Payne has touched the hearts of many, not just the unbreakable One Direction fan community, but people worldwide.”
“As individuals who were deeply affected by the loss of this incredible talent, we ask that a permanent structure or mural be erected in Wolverhampton in his honor,” the petition page continues.
