- 11 days ago
Arsenal paid Gunners fan Daniel Anjorin during their Premier League clash with Bournemouth on Saturday after the 14-year-old was murdered in a sword attack in east London.
Anjorin, a boyhood Arsenal fan, was killed on Tuesday on a suburban east London street in Hainault while on his way to school. Four other people were injured during the incident.
In less than two days, 5,000 people donated to a fundraiser for the family and Arsenal decided to pay tribute to the youngster during their Premier League clash at Bournemouth.
The Gunners conducted a minute of applause after 14 minutes had been played at the Emirates Stadium, with Bournemouth and the fans taking part too.
Mikel Arteta's side also shared a photo of Anjorin on the main screen in the stadium ahead of the game.
Mail Sport revealed earlier that the club had been in close contact with the family liaison officer to offer their support.
Social media platforms such as X (formerly known as Twitter) have been flooded with tributes to Anjorin.
Marcus Arduini Monzo, 36, appeared at Westminster Magistrates' Court on Thursday accused of Daniel's murder along with two counts of attempted murder, two counts of grievous bodily harm, aggravated burglary, and possession of a bladed article.
Four others were injured during Tuesday's 22-minute rampage, including a heroic female police officer who almost lost a hand.
