This week, France and Arsenal legend Thierry Henry sent a personal message to Norwich academy striker Shae Hutchinson, who is in self-isolation waiting for a second kidney transplant at the age of 20.

Henry, who coached Hutchinson at Arsenal's academy, said: "Not only to deal with it one time, you came back, you played. Now you have to deal with it a second time. All my thoughts are with you, my prayers.

"You just have to hang on. Stay strong. Hopefully I'll see you soon."
