Manchester City star Sergio Aguero opened his heart and home to a 10-year-old cancer patient, gifting the young fan a signed shirt and pair of boots.

Callum Foy is undergoing treatment for a cancerous tumour in his neck, but the City supporter was granted some brief respite from his battle thanks to Aguero.

City's all-time leading goalscorer Aguero invited Foy – who also has an inoperable tumour on his brain – and the youngster's family to his home.

 

Aguero scored a hat-trick in the 6-1 rout of Huddersfield Town last week and he has the chance to add to his tally when Premier League champion City faces newly promoted Wolves on Saturday.
