Seamus Coleman was a surprise choice for many people, when Martin O’Neill handed him the captaincy during Euro 2016.
He took on the armband against Italy- and his impressive leadership skills has seen him keep it ever since.
Coleman is widely loved among Irish fans, but Everton fans seem to love him as much.
And it’s easy to see why in this video posted by the club.
Toffees fan Will has had a tough 2016, with his father passing away earlier this year.
He was nominated by friends to receive a surprise Secret Santa visit from Everton.
And what a surprise it was for the 11 year old, when he came home from school to find Coleman in his living room!
