Mesut Ozil helped an eight-year-old boy forget about his illness and hospital appointments for an afternoon by organising a surprise visit to his home.
Arsenal mad youngster Callum Axford, from Essex, was given the ultimate surprise after he was told by his parents that he was heading for a doctor's appointment, when in fact he was invited to Ozil's home instead.
Eight-year-old Callum was born prematurely with congenital diaphragmatic hernia and is currently living with neurofibromatosis, chronic lung Disease and cerebral palsy. Due to his condition, Callum must visit hospital regularly for check-ups and to monitor his lungs.
Ozil, who is an ambassador for the charity Rays of Sunshine, surprised Callum and his sister Sophie by emerging out of the bushes as they arrived at what they presumed was a doctor's surgery.
Young Callum was given a tour of his favourite footballer's property and also got to show off his football skills to the Arsenal star, who is currently on a short end-of-season break before returning to training ahead of the Europa League final in Azerbaijan.
Coincidentally, both Callum and his sister had decided to wear Arsenal jerseys as they wanted to ask the doctor if he was an Arsenal supporter.
