Ilkay Gundogan has helped set up a shopping service and give thank you packages to nursing staff in an area of Germany badly affected by the coronavirus outbreak.
The Manchester City midfielder has made private donations, which are helping people in the Heinsberg County, a federal state of North-Rhine Westphalia that was among the first to see a spike in Covid-19 cases.
Gundogan, 29, teamed up with the local football association, amateur club SVG Birgden-Langbroich-Schierwaldenrath and a supermarket in Birgden to set up the shopping service.
