Nice Gesture

[jexykrodic]

THE ECHO can exclusively reveal that Rafa Benitez today donated £96,000 to the Hillsborough Family Support Group as he gets set to leave Merseyside.

The former Liverpool FC boss, who was today confirmed as the new manager at Inter Milan, handed over the cheque to Margaret Aspinall, chairwoman of the HFSG, as the rest of the committee watched on this afternoon.

In a low key visit to the group's office, Benitez wished the group well and told them he hoped they would get the justice and the truth they are campaigning for.

Mrs Aspinall said: "It was just nice to know that he wanted to see us before he went."

Great stuff. whenever you hear about footballers being greedy and giving nothing back these are the type of stories that go someway towards improving the game's reputation

Very very nice of him.
He really didn't have to do this. This will really help HFSG. 100k is HUGE!

I've just realised he's chosen 96. Thought it was a random amount at first. Well done Rafa.

Yeah, didn't get that connection either immediately, but if Rafa really loved the club he would've given them 96 million.
