Olly Murs is one of the famous faces confirmed to appear in Niall Horan's upcoming charity football match.

As previously reported, the One Direction singer recently announced that he will hold the Niall Horan Charity Football Challenge on May 26 in aid of Irish Autism Action and Heart and Minds Challenge.

It will take place at Leicester's King Power Stadium and Horan will be one of the team's managers, with bandmates Louis Tomlinson and Liam Payne on his side.

It has been confirmed that former footballer Robbie Savage will manage the other team, with the likes of Olly Murs, Marvin Humes and Rod Stewart set to take to the pitch.

Boyzone's Keith Duffy - who is an ambassador for Irish Autism Action - and ex-footballers Robbie Fowler and Jason McAteer will also take part.

More participants will be announced at the end of May.

Tickets for the event are on sale via Ticketmaster.
