The Chelsea star made the kind gesture after asking hospital chiefs how he could help during the coronavirus crisis, according to football.london
The 27-year-old is also part of the Players Together campaign to donate money to NHS charities and last month made an unspecified donation to Chelsea's foundation wing along with his team-mates.
Chelsea have been widely praised through the coronavirus crisis with the club offering free hotel rooms to hospital staff at St Mary's Paddington, Charing Cross Hospital and Hammersmith Hospital, as well as free meals to NHS staff and to charities supporting vulnerable people in the community.
