Nottingham Forest striker Billy Sharp will welcome a new child into his family in around four weeks' time.
The 26-year-old, who is on loan at the City Ground from Southampton, tragically lost his son Luey Jacob Sharp two days after he was born in October last year.
The forward's son was born with gastroschisis, which causes the bowel to grow outside of the baby's body.
Following their loss, Sharp's partner Jade fell pregnant again and is due to give birth in a month.
