Luis Figo is to star in a triathlon with a difference, along with some of the planet’s most famous names.
The Portugal and Real Madrid legend is set to be joined by footballing royalty in the shape of Andrea Pirlo, Robert Pires, and Juan Sebastian Veron in Ibiza this summer.
Figo and the rest will face off in three sports – football, Padel and golf – over a four-day festival on the white isle.
Other names in the frame for Legends Ibiza include former Chelsea pair Joe Cole and Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink, along with screen stars Mark Strong and Jason Isaacs.
Figo will captain one team at a four-day event, which will raise money for charities including Cruz Roja, the Spanish Red Cross. There will also be a series of VIP events with officials promising ‘the party to end all parties’.
The festival will be streamed worldwide, with fans able to buy a variety of passes including one which allows entry into the golf competition.
Legends Ibiza from June 2-5, is being hosted by the Legends Soccer Group, which has overseen such matches as the Game4Ukraine and the Sir Bobby Robson Trophy.
Figo, the 2000 Ballon D’or winner and 2001 World Player of the Year, will captain one of the sides against an as-yet unnamed opponent.
Fellow former Real stars Michel Salgado and Iker Casillas are also in the frame, along with ex-Manchester United striker Diego Forlan.
