As mentioned, Andre Gomes was involved in a horrifying collision with Tottenham Hotspur defender Serge Aurier after a push from South Korean Heung-Min Son. After the incident, players from both the teams were seen distraught. Gomes has since undergone successful surgery and is expected to be back fit ahead of the next campaign.

The Euro 2016 winner received a lot of support and positive motivation post the injury on social media from fans and colleagues. The midfielder himself thanked everyone for the overwhelming support he received. Now, a South Korean supporter called Chook Goo-In has sent a special box of treats and a message of goodwill to the stricken star all the way from Asia. It was indeed a sweet gesture from Goo-In, which sure brought a smile on the face of Andre Gomes. He shared the letter and the gift on his Instagram story.
