JACK GREALISH delighted an emotional fan before helping Man City advance to the next round of the FA Cup.
Grealish, 26, left the young supporter in tears as he signed a shirt and gave her a hug.
The most expensive British footballer in history stopped on his way into the Etihad upon spotting Abbie Pinder and her mum.
The England international autographed the personalised shirt and leant down to her wheelchair for an embrace with Pinder, leaving her visibly emotional.
The touching video has been shared thousands of times on social media and praise has been heaped on the City forward.
Pinder later said it was a ‘dream come true.’
Manchester City progressed into the fifth round of the FA Cup by beating Fulham 4-1.
A dazzling run by Grealish himself won the penalty for the third goal.
