Carlo Ancelotti surprised an Everton fan with motor neurone disease while Jose Mourinho helped deliver care packages as Premier League managers joined in the battle against the coronavirus crisis.
The English top flight has been suspended until at least April 30 due to the pandemic but clubs and managers are pitching in to help vulnerable, isolated people.
Everton manager Ancelotti joined his club's "Blue Family" community campaign, making a phonecall to Mark Cruise, a 52-year-old Everton fan diagnosed with motor neurone disease last year.
In a video posted on Everton's Twitter feed, Ancelotti initially caught the disbelieving supporter by surprise.
"Hi Mark, how are you? I'm Carlo," Ancelotti, 60, said.
"Who is it?", Cruise replied.
"I'm the manager of Everton. I know that you are a fan of Everton," said Ancelotti before Cruise responded: "I'm a big fan of you Mr Ancelotti, you are a top fella."
"It is a difficult time for everyone right now, particularly among the elderly, so I want to offer my assistance in any way I can."
