Brave Evertonian Georgie enjoyed a Christmas surprise he will never forget when he was greeted at school by Jack Grealish after a heartbreaking period in the youngster's life. The eight-year-old, who lives in Bootle, tragically lost his father at the age of two, before his mother Gemma was diagnosed with stage four blood cancer, which led to chemotherapy and a stem cell transplant. Georgie also lost his nan two years ago, while his favourite teaching assistant – who also supported Everton – passed away earlier this year. Despite all of those life-shattering events, Georgie continues to excel in school, while holding a deep passion for playing football and watching the Blues. He has also been a huge help to his mum during her treatment, and was nominated for the surprise by his grandad Keith. To reward his bravery, Grealish – Georgie's favourite player – turned up unannounced at his school the morning after scoring Everton's only goal in a 1-0 away win over Bournemouth to gift Georgie his shirt and boots from the match, as well as inviting him to be a mascot for the Toffees' final game before Christmas, against Arsenal at Hill Dickinson Stadium on Saturday.
