Jose Mourinho to manage England in Soccer Aid charity match

By , Football League Editor
Jose Mourinho and Sam Allardyce will team up to manage the England team at this summer's Soccer Aid celebrity charity match against the Rest of the World.

Former Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho has agreed to take charge of the England team alongside West Ham United boss Sam Allardyce at this summer's Soccer Aid charity match.

The fixture, where celebrities from England and the Rest of the World do battle, will again take place at Old Trafford in what will be its 10th edition.

Mourinho and Allardyce will team up to manage England, while Leicester City boss Claudio Ranieri will take charge of the Rest of the World side.

"I want to be the first one to win the Soccer Aid trophy for both teams, England and the Rest of the World," Mourinho said.

"Sam and I will make a very good partnership and it will be a great feeling for Claudio to finally lose a match!"

TV stars Mark Wright, Paddy McGuinness and Jack Whitehall are among the players who will represent England on June 5.
