Singer Robbie Williams came up with the initiative in 2006 to help children worldwide have the best possible start in life.

Soccer Aid aims to help kids escape conflict, malnutrition and disease while at the same time accessing education and a generally safe environment around the globe.

The charity football match is the biggest in the world and since 2006 has raised more than £90million in total.

The 2023 tournament was the most successful ever as it raised a record-breaking £14.6m for UNICEF – a fee Williams and co would love to break this year.
