To raise funds for the completion of a school in Ghana that was being built by the late Christian Atsu, Chelsea FC has announced that the jerseys worn by their players during their match against Everton will be auctioned.
Atsu, who played for both Chelsea and Everton during his career, was a member of Chelsea for five years, but he never played for their first team before moving to Everton.
The match between the two former clubs of Atsu took place on Saturday in the Premier League, with the game ending in a 2-2 draw at Stamford Bridge.
According to a statement from Chelsea, the jerseys and other items worn by the players will be auctioned to raise money for the completion of Atsu's school project.
Money raised will be going to Arms Around the Child, a charity for which Christian was an ambassador, and it will fund the completion of the school they had started building in his native Ghana,” the club announced.
“The auction, which includes signed shirts from all the squad as well as a variety of items from club legends, will run until 2pm on 8 April.”
Meanwhile, Chelsea captain Cesar Azpilicueta added: “This initiative allows us to celebrate the life of Christian, an individual who was well-loved within the club and someone we deeply miss.
“Christian’s wonderful personality shone through during the times we shared together and any contribution to the shirt auction will offer valuable support towards the legacy he leaves behind.”
