Famous faces from the world of sport, music and TV will come together to celebrate the life of Ricky Hatton – and raise money for charity – at Game4Ricky.
The British boxing icon, who was also a passionate mental health advocate and faced his own battles with depression, sadly passed away last year.
Hatton was a huge Man City fan and Joie Stadium, the home of the women's side, will play host to the charity match in November.
"Manchester meant everything to my dad," said Campbell Hatton, Ricky's son and captain of Team Hatton.
"Wherever he travelled in the world, he was always incredibly proud of where he came from and of the people of this city.
"What makes Game4Ricky so special is that it gives Manchester the chance to come together and celebrate him – not just as a world champion, but as a dad, a mate and somebody who genuinely loved this city and its people."
The game will see Team Hatton take on Team Hitman, captained by Ricky's brother Matthew Hatton, and we now know some of the big names that will be taking part.
Radio Times rounds up the list of legends and celebrities featuring in the Game4Ricky line-ups.
