THE idea of Wayne Rooney and Didier Drogba "playing the O2" sounds as daft as Lady GaGa turning out for Arsenal.
But the Man United and Chelsea superstars have agreed to make their rock arena debut just one week after the World Cup - alongside fellow Premier League aces Steven Gerrard and Cesc Fabregas, Spaniard David Villa and Real Madrid's £80million man Cristiano Ronaldo.
Thankfully they will be doing what they do best - showing off their amazing abilities with a ball.
But it won't be like any match seen before.
The footie stars will battle it out in a tournament testing their skills in front of a huge live audience and millions of TV viewers.
Called A:3K - which stands for Arena 3000 - the event involves five "gladiatorial" soccer challenges which will be staged on a black pitch against the backdrop of a hi-tech set, above.
The aim is to determine which player is the most skilful.
