Wijnaldum Buys 11-Year-Old Liverpool Fan Adidas Ace PureControl Boots

Liverpool midfielder Georginio Wijnaldum has bought 11-year-old Liverpool fan Paddy Mackessy a pair of Adidas PureControl football boots in the Liverpool City Adidas store on Monday.

Wijnaldum Buys Young Liverpool Fan New Boots

Wijnaldum spotted Mackessy looking at the laceless Adidas Ace PureControl football boots on display in the Liverpool City Adidas store on Monday before asking: 'Do you like those boots?' Yes, of course and what size are you?'

Louise, Paddy's mother, asked her son to hurry up as they left the store and with that, the shop assistant ran down the street after Paddy and asked him to come back as Georginio bought Paddy the boots before agreeing to taking another picture with him after their first picture together came out poorly.

"We went into the Adidas store and Paddy just went and bought a pair of skinny pants, and of course being a typical Irish mammy, I went 'come on so' because he would stay looking at soccer stuff all day if you let him," Louise told Ray D'Arcy on RTE Radio 1 on Monday. Paddy said he started chatting about the soccer boots with Wijnaldum.

"He said to Paddy 'do you like those boots?' And Paddy said 'I do'. "He said 'what size are you?' and he said 'size five' and he was like 'why don't you buy them?' And Paddy was like 'they're so expensive'.

"At that stage I had called him and we left the store and Paddy was telling me this and we walked out into the city and we literally just looked behind and the lady from the store had ran after us and she said 'listen, can you come back to the store? He wants to buy Paddy the boots'."
