Celtic FC Foundation is going to donate £10,000 to a charity set up in Bradley Lowery's name.

Bradley was a six-year-old from County Durham who lost his fight against neuroblastoma, a rare form of childhood cancer, earlier this month. While he battled with his illness he won the hearts of people around the world, including International Striker Jermain Defoe who called him his 'best friend'.

Celtic officials will present £10,000 donation to the Bradley Lowery Foundation, a charity being set-up to remember him, ahead of their match against Sunderland on Saturday 29th for whom Bradley was mascot.
