Author's Take
Wes Brown has been doing charity work in the past and in his first season in Kochi, he is winning the hearts of people in the city with his kind gesture. This is a new culture that is been brought into Indian football and let us hope that more players follow the path of the former Manchester United defender in helping the people who need it.
