The young fan, eight-year-old Giacomo Marshall, also had a few hot tips for his hero, asking him to "try to do a bicycle kick" and "run fast to get the ball".

Cairney, who posted an image of the letter and money on his official Twitter page, took time out his busy schedule on Thursday to pay a visit to his biggest fan and came bearing gifts, including a signed shirt and a pair of his football boots.
