From 2000-2011, Masters football was a permanent fixture on the Sky Sports TV schedule.

Some of the most well-known names in British football took part, including the likes of Ally McCoist, Roy Keane and Matt Le Tissier.

And now it plans to grace our TVs once again, with more legends set to return.

Which clubs are involved and who is playing?

Masters football will come back this July and is set to feature four of the biggest clubs in British football.

The tournament is expected to feature Manchester United, Liverpool, Celtic and Rangers.

For United, Paul Scholes and Wes Brown are expected to turn out, while Steve McManaman could play for Liverpool.

It will air on sports documentary streaming site 360 Sports Television, rather than on Sky Sports.
