West Ham and Chelsea fans have clapped for Arthur Labinjo-Hughes in a touching tribute to the murdered six-year-old.
Applause filled the stadium at the West Ham vs Chelsea Match on Saturday afternoon during the sixth-minute tribute.
A picture of the Birmingham City fan was projected onto a big screen as he was honoured in a minute-long tribute, with clubs around the country clapping for the youngster.
Coventry City, who played West Bromwich Albion also held a tribute, as did football fans at the Wolverhampton vs Liverpool game.
Fans at Birmingham City – who Arthur supported – staged a “touching tribute” by also clapping during their game away at Millwall. There are plans for another tribute for the team’s game at Cardiff.
Arthur died of a head injury inflicted by Tustin on June 16 this year.
A court heard how Tustin repeatedly banged Arthur’s head on a hard surface in the hours leading up to his death.
She and 29-year-old Hughes has previously carried out a campaign of abuse, including starvation and then force-feeding Arthur food laced with salt.
