Celtic’s Nir Bitton Pays £1000 For Girl With Brain Tumour To Go To Disneyland

Celtic midfielder Nir Bitton has cemented himself as one of the nicest men in football this afternoon after it emerged he payed £1000 for a little girl with a brain tumour to go to Disneyland.

On top of that, the Israel international also handed over a signed Celtic shirt, in the hope it could be auctioned off to raise more money.

The Facebook page 'Keep Jasmin Smiling' posted an update yesterday showing pictures of Bitton handing over the shirt, as well as an envelope of cash containing the instruction: 'Hope you enjoy Disneyland'.

Jasmin's Facebook page simply states that Jasmin is dealing with the effects of a brain tumour and the page's aim is to keep her smiling.

The most recent post details how Jasmin failed to make it to Celtic Park for the Hoops' 2-0 win over Hamilton yesterday but hopefully Bitton's surprise present helps to put a smile on her face.

Fair play, Nir. Brilliant gesture!
