Manchester United star Luke Shaw makes fan’s dreams come true as he stops for photo… and takes her on private tour of Old Trafford
England Left-back has been sidelined since damaging his ankle ligaments during the Red Devils' game against Swansea in April
LUKE SHAW made Amy Pustelnik's day after he invited her on personal tour of Old Trafford to thank her for her support.
She even convinced her mum to drive her 100 miles from her Nottingham home to United's training base in Carrington just so that she could get a picture with her hero.
The teenager, who is big Manchester United fan, but a bigger Shaw fan, created a fan account for the England fullback in an attempt to lift his spirits as he went through rehab after a leg break in April.
The 17-year-old first got in contact with Shaw after he began following her fan page.
She asked him whether she could have a picture with the former Southampton left back if she managed to get down to Manchester.
But she was not expecting to be offered a private tour by her idol.
"Luke started following my page earlier this year and I was really shocked so I asked him if I came down to Carrington if he would stop for me so I could get a picture," said Amy.
"When he came out he stopped and had pictures with loads of fans and he asked me if I had been to Old Trafford before.
"I told him I had been last season and then he asked me if I wanted to go in his car to the ground and have a tour. I couldn't believe it."

"We were talking about his injury in the car and about when he's hoping to come back and he just kept checking I was okay."
Shaw first took Amy to the Theatre of Dreams where she was able to step onto the hallowed turf.
She said: "I've been on the tour before but you don't get anywhere near the pitch, I just couldn't believe it," she said.
"I was totally amazed, it didn't feel like a real life experience it really was a once in a life time opportunity.
"Getting to go on the pitch and have the picture was probably the best part and I can't wait to see him back in a United shirt."
After the act of kindness, Shaw said: "It was so nice to be able to do something like that. She really did love it."
Shaw, who has not had much to smile about recently, took part in training with the Red Devils' first team after a lengthy injury.
The left back is expected to fully from the injury ahead of schedule, according to the Manchester Evening News.
