Ryan Gravenberch chant: Lyrics, tune and story behind Liverpool’s song for their midfield linchpin

Ryan Gravenberch emerged as one of Liverpool's best players during their Premier League-winning campaign in 2024/25, making the Dutchman one of the most beloved Liverpool players among supporters.

As a result of Gravenberch's performances in a red shirt, the Kop rewarded him with his own chant partway through their most recent title-winning season.

For all the key information on the Gravenberch chant, including the lyrics and the tune, we have you covered below.

Ryan Gravenberch chant lyrics and tune

The Ryan Gravnberch chant is a nice and simple one, and it shouldn't take long to learn. It is sung to the tune of ‘This Girl' by the Australian band Cookin' on 3 Burners, and the lyrics are simply:

‘Du du du du du du Ryan Gravenberch!'

Ryan Gravenberch chant background

The background to the Ryan Gravenberch one is interesting as it is effectively a complete copy-and-paste job on the Liverpool chant for Georginio Wijnaldum.

There are some similarities between the two players, including the fact that they both play in midfield and are both Dutch. However, most crucially, there is the same number of syllables in Ryan Gravenberch as there is in Gini Wijnaldum, making it very easy for Liverpool fans to simply swap Gravenberch's name into the song.

This isn't the type of thing that Liverpool fans normally do, though, so perhaps we should treat this football chant as a placeholder until the Kop think of something else for Gravenberch.

FGG says: A player who deserves his own chant

Many Liverpool fans feel that recycling Wijnaldum's song for Gravenberch is inappropriate on two counts. For starters, they feel it's disrespectful to Wijnaldum, who was a central cog in the Jurgen Klopp era, and secondly, they feel that Gravenberch is worthy of his own song. What they come up with remains to be seen.
