Atmane, the Champion with a Big Heart: What He Gave to Little Nino, Victim of a Pokémon Card Theft
A huge collector of Pokémon cards — he owns nearly 20,000, one of the largest collections in France — Terence Atmane was deeply moved by the story of young Nino, 4 years old, who was the victim of a card theft on a Grenoble tram while he was with his mother.
When the story was shared by Nino's parents on social media, Terence Atmane did not hesitate to respond.
Touched by the situation, the semifinalist of the Cincinnati Masters 1000 decided to give the boy several cards from his collection, as well as a t-shirt, two signed balls, a dedicated photo, and a Pikachu plush.
"Little Nino is going to be spoiled for Christmas!" commented Atmane while posting the photo.
