Olivia Naylor, the girlfriend of Manchester City star John Stones, has donated £20k towards a fundraiser for a child's treatment trial for his leukaemia.
Dillan was diagnosed with leukaemia at just one year old and is continuing to battle the cancer as he approaches his fifth birthday. Dillan underwent a bone marrow transplant late last year after a successful campaign to find a match, with a testing event held at City's Etihad Stadium which was backed by centre-back Stones.
Sadly, Dillan has suffered a relapse in his marrow and there are no more treatments available in the UK.

£281,024 of the goal has been raised so far from over 14,000 donations, with Naylor donating £20k herself. The fundraiser campaign reads: "Dillan was diagnosed with Leukaemia at aged 1 and was given a 93% cure rate. After 2 years of gruelling chemotherapy and suffering, Dillan relapsed Aug 2022.

"Anything going forward would be an experimental trial, there is a trial open in Washington that starts in October which has to be self-funded so we don't have long to raise the money!
