Pic: Manchester United players surprise young fan with a new wheelchair

A nice gesture.

Manchester United players have chipped in to buy a new wheelchair for a young fan. Robin van Persie presented the wheelchair, which is decked out in the team's colours, to the youngster yesterday, and posted this picture to his personal Instagram account. Van Persie said: 'It was great to meet Mehar today and surprise him with a new wheelchair courtesy of all the players'.
