 Everton fans have decorated Goodison Park's Dixie Dean statue with a Sunderland shirt in tribute to Bradley Lowery . The young Sunderland fanatic passed away earlier this month after a lengthy battle with Neuroblastoma. The Blues welcomed Bradley to Goodison Park twice last season and donated £200k to help towards his treatment last year. The six-year-old's passing was confirmed by his parents in a heart-breaking Facebook post on July 7, which led to a touching message from Blues chairman Bill Kenwright. "We are so privileged to have known him...and will always be proud that he chose us as his second club," said Kenwright. “We send our loving thoughts to his mum and dad and his family...plus those who were inspired by him throughout the world of football. "Especially our friends the supporters, team and staff at Sunderland AFC. And of course his beloved Jermain (Defoe). Respect!!" |
