Jack Grealish has reportedly donated £1,400 to a cancer-stricken father in his latest bout of generosity.
The Manchester City star was moved to give the money after coming across the dad’s story on GoFundMe while on holiday in Greece.
And The Sun revealed how this was the latest in a spree of giveaways totalling at least tens of thousands of pounds over the last five years.
Earlier this year, the 29-year-old was reported to have pledged £1,000 towards a woman’s funeral fees after she died unexpectedly.
Further donations from Grealish include £5,000 to a 20-year-old with cancer in 2023 and £5,000 to a deceased crash victim’s family in 2021.
For the 2023 donation, Grealish gave money to young Birmingham City fan Dylan Lamb, who was battling blood cell cancer and needed £1million for a clinical trial of treatment in the United States.

The Sun claims he has given tens of thousands in personal donations over the last five years
Grealish was hailed as a ‘class act’ for making the top donation but unfortunately Lamb passed away a few weeks later.
In the same year, he gave £5,000 towards the funeral costs of a late Aston Villa season ticket holder.
Villa season ticket holder Shawn Francis, who was expecting his first child with his partner Danielle, was tragically found dead at the age of 29.
‘He may be a world-class footballer and love designer clobber but Jack is no stranger to the hardships of life,’ a source told The Sun.
‘He’s passionate about using his fortune to help others.
‘GoFundMe is perfect as it goes direct to each case.
‘He’s also been vocal about supporting Hollie (his 21-year-old sister who has cerebral palsy).
‘Growing up with her and seeing challenges she’s faced helped open his eyes.’
He also spent a day with Team GB’s Special Olympics team in 2023.
Grealish looks as if he is headed for the exit door at Manchester City after being left out of Pep Guardioila’s 27-man squad for the Club World Cup.
Thomas Tuchel has made it clear that he must play more if he wants to feature for England.
