Ian Wright x Baller League! Arsenal legend set to be involved in completely new football competition with Wembley Rangers AFC ahead of draft

YouTuber KSI and streamer IShowSpeed have teamed up to front the United Kingdom and American versions of the Baller League respectively. A total of 12 teams will feature in the six-a-side tournament and managers will assemble their squads on Monday (March 10) in a huge draft, one that ex-Gunner Wright will be involved in.

Alongside a clip with him and England star Chloe Kelly, Wright wrote: "Wembley Rangers AFC x Baller League 🤝🏾 Find out who’ll join our team at the draft on Monday night! @ballerleagueuk."

The tournament is set to involve a combination of football icons and social media stars and every match will be shown live on Sports Sports and NOW TV from the Copper Box Arena in London on Monday nights. Legendary figures such as Gary Lineker, John Terry, and Luis Figo are part of the managerial lineup for the competition.

Fans will get to see the tournament begin next week, which involves a smaller indoor pitch, 15-minute halves, and shock rule twists will be thrown in as well. After Baller League was established in Germany by Mats Hummels and Lukas Podolski two years ago, this new UK version will hope to be just as successful.
