Thomas' Dream Day

Young Evertonian Thomas Taylor enjoyed a day to remember by taking part in the 2016/17 official team photoshoot.

Eight-year-old Thomas, who has been battling cancer since he was six months old, was joined by his family as he met Ronald Koeman and the first-team squad at Goodison Park.

And that was not all - after meeting his heroes and featuring in a photograph on the Goodison pitch, Romelu Lukaku and Ashley Williams presented Thomas with their boots as a memento of the special day.

“I had a brilliant time,” said Thomas, who confirmed the two pairs of boots will take pride of place in his bedroom window.
