Everton's Romelu Lukaku scores his side's third goal of the game during match at Goodison Park.

The Baggies goalkeeper is collecting opposition jerseys after each game this season and plans to auction them off to raise money for Cure Leukaemia, a charity he has raised thousands of pounds for in the past through bike rides.

Lukaku, who played alongside Foster at The Hawthorns in 2012/13 when he was on a season-long loan from Chelsea, scored Everton’s third goal in a comfortable 3-0 win at Goodison Park on Saturday.

Afterwards, he gave his shirt to his former team-mate.

“I always try and get a decent player so one of their shirts might raise a bit more cash for charity,” explained Foster recently. “I’ve got quite a few of the goalies.

“I got Harry Kane when he scored that hat-trick past me (in January) which was bitter-sweet.

“I’ve got absolutely loads. It’s a good cause – they’re gonna raise cash from selling the shirts.”

Albion striker Salomon Rondon, who came on for the last 15 minutes, gave his shirt to a young Everton fan straight after the final whistle and posed for a photo with three youngsters on the side of the pitch.

Cure Leukaemia said: “For those asking, we willl be releasing details soon on how to bid for the match-worn shirts collected by Ben Foster.”
