Arsenal football player, Mesut Ozil has reached out to a
young Kenyan boy who was pictured wearing an old jersey with Ozil's name
written on it with a marker.
The boy, named Lawrence, is a herdsboy. He was pictured
herding his cattle in Nairobi, Kenya, while wearing the jersey that made him go
viral.
Having seen the photo on the web, Ozil reached out to the
boy and sent him and his brother a couple of Arsenal jerseys signed by him. He
also gave them soccer boots.
