Diagnosed with Spastic Diplegia Cerebral Palsy, Ryley was told that he will probably never walk. To see him do so in spite of the odds is a heartwarming moment.
Decked in his Spurs jersey, the youngster was able to take a few steps using assisted means. His cry of joy at the end showcased what it meant to him.
There is a JustGiving page dedicated to the youngster. So far, it has helped collect an amount of £57,255. With a target of £75,000 to be met, it is still some way off. You can also do your bit by contributing here.
Spurs fans were overjoyed at the video and also came out in numbers to praise Dier for his words of support. We take a look at some of the reactions below.
