Well done Alfie Mawson 14:59 - Oct 20 with 4000 views | Kennedy | http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/41693996 Bournemouth's Charlie Daniels and Swansea's Alfie Mawson have become the first English players to join Juan Mata's Common Goal campaign. Manchester United midfielder Mata wants players to join him in donating at least 1% of their wages to support football-related charities. Centre-back Mawson, 23, was part of the England squad that reached the semi-final of last summer's European Under-21 Championships. He said: "It was only a few years ago that I was playing non-league and helping out my dad at weekends with his market stall. "Common Goal allows me to focus on my career while forming part of something that can really help transform lives of those less fortunate." [Post edited 20 Oct 2017 14:59]

I've no doubt loads of players give more than just 1% to charitable causes, in fact I think players get a bid of a hard ride and the 'selfish millionares' narrative is parroted too much. However more players en masse donating more to charity can be no bad thing. | | | |

The point is that Alfie and every other player are under no obligation to give a penny of their earnings. So hats off to him. If every professional sportsman did this it would help charities a great deal. | |
