I'm a Celebrity...Get Me Out of Here!: Former ref Mike Dean bookies' favourite to enter jungle

Former Premier League referee Mike Dean has become the bookies' favourite to enter this year's I'm a Celebrity...Get Me Out of Here!. It comes after the 54-year-old officiated his final top flight game as Chelsea beat Watford 2-1 on May 22.

Mr Dean was originally due to be an outsider to appear on the programme but his chances appear to have increased after calling it quits on his top-flight officiating career. According to OLBG, he is 4/5 to go onto the gameshow.

And if the bookies are to be believed, he won't be the only famous face from the footballing world, as Michael Owen is tipped to appear on the show. The former Liverpool, Manchester United, and England striker is currently watching on as daughter Gemma appears in the latest series of Love Island.
