Ant and Dec have revealed which top footballer they would love to enter the I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here! jungle. The Geordie pair revealed they want Jack Grealish to join the show in future.
The Man City ace has said in the past he's desperate to take part - however, Pep Guardiola would “not be too happy” if he signed up yet, reports The Mirror.
In a video clip to the iconic hosts, the footballer said: “I can’t lie to you, it’s something that I would absolutely love to do. It’s a show that I have watched for years since I was little and that I love. I don't know how I would get on in there. I don’t think I would be the best to be honest but I would give it a go.”
He added: “Never say never, it could happen one day.” In response, Ant claimed he'd bite Jack's hand off to take part. He said: “We would be more than happy to have you in the jungle whenever you are ready and whenever Pep says you are allowed.”
Several footballers have appeared in the Jungle over the years, including David Ginola, Ian Wright, Jimmy Bullard and Jill Scott. Ant and Dec would would also love for Gary Lineker to head to the Outback, in the wake of him leaving the BBC's Match of the Day after 25 years.
During an Instagram live video Ant, 49, said to viewers: "We've got to go now, oh no wait, there's one more suggestion it says, 'Get Gary Lineker in [the Jungle] for next year.'" Replying to the suggestion, Ant said: "Now that's a good idea. Great suggestion, now that he's left match of the day, let's get him in."
A source said: “Ant and Dec would love to sign up Gary but appreciate it’s a bit of a long shot. Producers would jump at the chance but would have to break the bank to secure him to say the least.”
The biggest salary this year is Coleen Rooney, who has secured a £1.5million paycheck. ITV were prepared to pull out the stops to secure her services in the wake of the Wagatha Christie High Court trial in which she beat Rebekah Vardy.
A source added: “It seemed like a hell of a lot of money at the time but Coleen is providing value for money with her anecdotes about Wayne, as well as touching upon her legal battles with Vardy. ITV are delighted by the signing.”
