Help with funeral costs for Christopher Adedeji

Christopher passed away unexpectedly on Wednesday 29th September, in hospital after a long battle with Covid 19. Sadly made more difficult for Christopher, due to the immunosuppressants he has been taking since his kidney transplant.

To say that we are shocked and heartbroken is a huge understatement. Christopher was a great family man and a real peoples person. He was a very strong inspirational man, who had a heart of gold and always put others before himself. He will be dearly missed by many, across the world.

We want to give Christoper the send off he deserves. His death was so unexpected. Christopher was only 53 and leaves behind 6 children. There were no plans, or funds for a funeral. This is where those of us whose lives he touched can help. As yet, there is no confirmed date for the funeral, but all will be welcome to celebrate Christopher's amazing life.

Christopher helped so many, and gave so much, we are really hoping that now we can all help Chris in the way he would have helped us. Any financial support will be hugely appreciated and will be used towards the Funeral costs and helping his children.

Christophers whole life was dominated by his immense passion for football. He went from being a player to being an agent, always keen to help others to achieve their dreams in football. We want to carry on his legacy, and keep his business going, so that he will always be a name in football.

Thank you for all your messages, love and support during this difficult time.

Some of the tributes coming in for Chris......

'Chris' a mountain of a man in terms of heart and soul. We clashed many a time, however our calls always ended with bye, we will speak tomorrow and of course his signature saying "well done , good luck"

Chris had the amazing art to always ask me ,everytime, first how my wife was, then my kids, before we even spoke about football. Chris' nurturing and advice elevated mine and my families fortunes too a place where without him it wouldn't be! Chris your name and spirit will live on forever.

I’ll never forget the day that I met you, you were the only one who gave me a chance and showed me the way.…

You taught me so much about life, how to take it easy and give everything unconditionally.

I will never forget the laughs we had together, and the experiences that we shared.

You are so very important to me!

You are my example to follow, plenty of values and yet such a simple person at the same time.

You are Chris ! You are the special one !!!

"Mr. Christopher" worked tirelessly, with such passion, to make other peoples dreams come true. He believed in people when they did not believe in themselves.
