22
people, including many children, were killed and dozens more were
injured after an explosion at Ariana Grande concert at the Manchester
Arena.
Speaking to Sky Sports News, Seluk
said:
'The news an eight-year-old girl went to see her favourite singer and didn't return home is too much to bear. My son is eight years old and I can't image the pain and the suffering that the parents of Saffie will be going through today.
'Yaya and I want to help. We talked this morning about what happened and he asked me what he thought we could do.'We have agreed to donate £50,000 each to help the victims of this terrible crime. It doesn't matter whether the victims are from Manchester or not.'Yaya is from Cote D'Ivoire (Ivory Coast), I am Russian. It doesn't matter. Today is a chance for those of us in football to help out.'
Toure, alongside several football stars on Tuesday took to their social media pages to mourn the victims who died in the blast.
Last night, the bomber was named as Salman Abedi, a 22-year-old British-Libyan jihadist who was born in Manchester in 1994.
Ariana Grande has reportedly offered to cover the funeral costs of the victims of the Manchester terror attack which occurred on Monday
just after her concert. An account dedicated to the singer made claims
that the pop singer has pledged to help the families of the 22 people
who lost their lives and give the dead a befitting burial.
The site, called Ariana Updates!, shared a post saying: "News on Ariana: Ariana has reached out to the families who's loves (sic) ones died last night....she is gonna pay for the funerals!"
Ariana has since suspended her Dangerous Woman tour and jetted home to Boca Raton, Florida where she was welcomed by her boyfriend, Mac Miller.
