Pretty nice gesture by the club..

Sunderland striker Duncan Watmore's father says his son has been "given a real lift" by an official letter from Real Madrid wishing him a smooth recovery.

Watmore Jr., 23, has had to undergo a cruciate knee operation that will keep him out until next season, having suffered the latest injury just weeks after returning from 10 months out with a similar problem.

Real Madrid's classy gesture

Hala. Madrid.

Classy.

Does he know how to spell a M in cursive?

Pretty sure they're spelled the same in cursive and print.

With everyone swooning over this gesture, I thought for sure RM had offered to pay for his medical costs.

Nope. Just wrote him a short letter.

Am I missing something from the story?

Lots of soccer players get injured, how many gets a letter from Real Madrid? The link to RM is either through Juan Mata's charity or Gareth Bale's connection with the Sunderland coach.

It's still a pretty nice gesture for such a big club to send a personal note to an hard luck injured player in the 2nd division.
