Players from both Everton and Sunderland will wear the Bradley Lowery Foundation logo on their shirts for Wednesday night's Carabao Cup tie.

The two sides face each other at Goodison Park in the third-round of the cup and the Foundation logo will replace the club's official shirt sponsors.

All the shirts will be signed and auctioned following the match to raise funds for the Bradley Lowery Foundation.

It was set up by Bradley's parents, Gemma and Carl, in memory of their six-year-old son, who died in July after suffering from cancer.

The foundation aims to offer support to families undertaking their own fundraising campaigns to fund children's medical treatment and equipment, and also to provide grants and work closely with families in need of guidance, reports the Mirror .

Bradley's mum, Gemma, said: "We are absolutely thrilled to see the Foundation logo on the front of the shirts. The game has a very special meaning to myself and Carl and we are overwhelmed by the support we have received from Sunderland and Everton.

"Bradley will be watching over everyone and I'm sure he would be very proud that his legacy can now help others."

The Sunderland fan captured the hearts of Merseyside after he came to Goodison Park as a mascot for Sunderland in February .

In April he was invited back to the city for the Grand National as a special guest of the Jockey Club - and was awarded an honorary 41st place in the race.

Earlier this month, thousands of people descended on Goodison Park to celebrate the life of Bradley Lowery in a celebrity charity match.

The match was staged to raise funds for the Bradley Lowery Foundation and Everton in the Community.

Sunderland's principal partner Dafabet has donated its space on the one-off shirt for the match, while Everton's SportPesa branding will also be temporarily replaced.
