Portuguese star Cristiano Ronaldo, captain of the Portuguese national team, sent a touching message to a Venezuelan child who survived the earthquake that struck the country on June 24.
Andres' story topped social media platforms after he was trapped under the rubble following a violent earthquake that struck the La Guaira region on June 24, resulting in a major tragedy with the death of all his family members, in addition to the young boy suffering severe injuries inside the hospital that led to the amputation of one of his legs.
Despite this suffering, Andres held on to his passion for football, expressing a simple wish to obtain Ronaldo's World Cup album poster after his album was lost under the rubble.
The biggest gift came from the Portuguese star, the captain of Saudi Arabia’s Al-Nassr, who sent a touching message to the Venezuelan child, saying: “I know that you are one of my biggest fans. When you get better, I would like to invite you to watch one of my matches and enjoy it, and I hope to meet you. With my sincere regards.”
This humanitarian and solidarity gesture from star Cristiano Ronaldo is a continuation of several humanitarian initiatives he has undertaken with children, the latest of which was for a child with cancer.
