Dutch footballer Anwar El Ghazi has announced his decision to donate 500,000 Euro (560,000 USD) from his payout with Mainz to support children in Gaza.
The decision comes amid Ghazi’s ongoing legal battle with the club over his dismissal, which was ruled invalid by a German labor court.
While taking to microblogging site X El Ghazi expressed gratitude to Mainz and wrote “I would like to take this moment to thank Mainz for two things. Firstly, for the substantial financial payoff, 500k of which will be used to fund projects for the children in Gaza.”
