Arrived in Manchester City this summer from Olympique Lyonnais, Rayan Cherki continues to be talked about, but this time outside the fields. The French international, already eagerly awaited in the English championship, marked the spirits by a generous gesture that made the buzz in the world of streaming.
Wounded and absent from the French team gathering, Cherki has a few weeks to rest and follow the news of his passions. It was in this context that he took advantage of his free time to participate in the Zevent, the charitable event which brings together dozens of content creators in Montpellier each year under the impetus of Zerot.
On the stream of the creator byilhan, the attacking midfielder sent a voice message in which he announces in particular giving him a donation, as well as two other streamers, Nico and Flamby. If the exact amount has not been revealed, his gesture immediately aroused the admiration of Internet users and football fans.
More than 9 million euros
The Zevent is enjoying growing success each year. For this 2025 edition, the total prize pool will be donated to four associations (the League against Cancer, the French Association of Caregivers, Hélébor, Nightline), as well as a collective of four other associations engaged in favor of childhood (doctor of doctor, smile in life, flight and sparadrap).
For 50 hours, nearly 350 streamers, including around forty on site, try to mobilize Internet users to support these eight associations working in the field of health. The generosity of donors has already made it possible to exceed 9 million euros in donations, confirming the exceptional magnitude of the event.
