Soccer Aid is returning to Manchester this year with a fantastic line-up of famous faces. Among the celebrities taking to the pitch at Manchester United's Old Trafford on Sunday, June 11 is Alex Brooker.
The presenter made his Soccer Aid debut at London Stadium last year and was the first-ever physically disabled person in the game. Now Alex, who co-hosts Channel 4's The Last Leg alongside comedians Adam Hills and Josh Widdicombe, is thrilled to return for 2023.
Reprising his spot on Team England, Alex will be walking out onto the pitch for the second time alongside Scarlette Douglas, Jack Wilshere, Joel Corry, Bugzy Malone, Karen Carney, Gary Cahill and Lioness and team captain Jill Scott. Hosted by Dermot O’Leary and Alex Scott, the event raises money for UNICEF to help to disadvantaged children worldwide, and will see a whole host of celebrities and professional players go head-to-head in a 90-minute match in front of more than 74,000 fans.
