Royals goalkeeper Mikkel Andersen recently spent time at a Thatcham Girls' FC football tournament and the girls have kindly written to him to say thank you.

Mikkel, 20, was on hand to dish out prizes, sign autographs and talk about his football career.

You can see the girls' kind handmade card here.
