Bayern Munich and Paderborn have joined forces for a charitable auction in response to the tragic death of Streli Mamba's niece at the Allianz Arena last month.

The 14-month old girl lost consciousness and subsequently died in hospital while her uncle was playing on the Allianz Arena pitch in a 3-2 win for Bayern Munich in February.

The two Bundesliga clubs are now going to honour her life by auctioning several signed shirts, with all of the proceeds going to a charity which provides support for parents and family members who lose young children.

The auction will take place between 6-13 March and jerseys of Thomas Müller, Leon Goretzka and Manuel Neuer are among the collection, while 14 Paderborn players will personally hand over their shirts to the highest bidders.
