The supporters are aiming to raise Ā£750,000 to support the club this season, and they are now within Ā£100,000 of the target after Moses sent money.

ā€œWow ā€“ what can we say? When Victor got in touch to say he wanted to help by donating such a substantial amount, I just couldnā€™t believe what I was hearing ā€“ itā€™s such an incredible gesture,ā€ , the chairperson of Wigan Athletic Supporters’ Club, Caroline Molyneux, said.

ā€œVictor wanted to make the donation and remain anonymous but we simply had to make sure he gets the recognition he deserves.
