Jurgen Klopp’s message to a young Everton fan with a muscle wasting disease is lovely

Paul Moore

Great stuff from the Liverpool manager.

Noah is a 10-year-old boy that’s a huge supporter of Everton. At the present moment, Noah’s family are trying to raise enough money to buy him a new wheelchair.

A quick look at their fundraising page will tell you all that you need to know about this “fabulous, amazing, independent, confident, funny and inspiring little boy.”

Unfortunately for Noah, he has a muscle wasting disease called duchenne muscular dystrophy and it impacts every muscle in the body.

Due to this, Noah can no longer walk or carry his own weight, but his family are looking to raise enough money to buy him a new wheelchair.

Their fundraising campaign has been given a massive boost after Noah’s aunt happened to bump into Jurgen Klopp at a petrol station in Formby, Liverpool.

“Hi Noah! We’re here in a petrol station in Formby and your auntie tells me, at this moment, you are not in the best shape but this will change, I am sure. I hear you are an Evertonian. A huge Evertonian! So hopefully you enjoy this little video. All the best and hopefully see you later,” said Klopp in this lovely video.

Here’s hoping that these kind words from the Liverpool manager can help boost Noah’s fundraising cause which you can donate to here.

This is lovely.
