As a member of the all-star panel on the hit ITV show The Masked Singer, Mo Gilligan is used to seeing people pushed beyond their usual boundaries, and this summer he'll be showing a different side to himself at Soccer Aid 2023. The 35-year-old comedian and Celebrity Gogglebox star will be back on the pitch this summer as the huge televised all-star charity match returns.
Now in its 12th year, Soccer Aid raises money for UNICEF, and it's returning to Manchester after raising a record-breaking £15,673,728 at London Stadium in 2022. Mo is on the World XI FC squad, captained by Olympic sprinting legend Usain Bolt.
Asked for a name to look out for this year, he says he'll be watching with interest team-mate Manchester boxer Tommy Fury. The 23-year-old former Love Island star makes his Soccer Aid debut and turns his hand to football after recently beating Jake Paul in his grudge match in Saudi Arabia.
