Kenyan international and Tottenham midfielder Victor Wanyama on Sunday showed an act of charity by playing soccer and spending time with six year-old Morrison Mburu, a kidney cancer patient courtesy the “Grant A Smile” project by Eddah's Hope Cancer Foundation.

“I have chosen to hang out with Morrison, because he needs every minute of encouragement, in his last stretch to beating cancer.” Said the Harambee stars captain.

According to videos and picture on both Instagram and twitter, the Tottenham midfielder did not only buy toys for the children but also spent his time with them.

This comes few days after the death of six-year-old Bradley Lowery who was loved and admired by many across the world especially in England for his brave fight with cancer since the age of 18 months.

Lowery died of neuroblastoma- a type of cancer that most commonly afflicts babies and young children.
