The Sunderland fan has been battling the rare form of cancer since he was 18 months old but in fact beat the disease once only for it to return in July 2016.
Lowery's family announced on their Facebook fundraising page, on which millions worldwide have followed his battle against neuroblastoma, that their "superhero" had died in the arms of his "heartbroken" family.
The family's words read: "My brave boy has went with the angels today 07/07/17 at 13:35, in mammy and daddies arms surrounded by his family. He was our little superhero and put the biggest fight up but he was needed elsewhere.
"There are no words to describe how heartbroken we are. Thank you everyone for all your support and kind words. Sleep tight baby boy and fly high with them angels."
His bravery in battling the disease with a huge smile on his face and his passion for football has touched millions around the world.
---RIP Bradley Lowery
