NewsKuyt, Skrtel and Klavan among six players added to LFC Legends squad
Liverpool FC Legends have added six more players to their squad for the upcoming LFC Foundation legends fixture at Anfield.
LFC Legends will take on their Chelsea counterparts in a 3pm GMT kick-off on Saturday March 22 – with tickets on sale now.
With the first five players confirmed last month, the next batch of names to make the Reds squad have now been announced for the game, which is presented by official training partner AXA.
Goalkeeper Sander Westerveld, who was part of the 2000-01 treble-winning Liverpool side, will take part once again this year, joining Jerzy Dudek as an option between the sticks.
Martin Skrtel and Ragnar Klavan have also signed up to bolster the defensive ranks for the charity match, in association with Forever Reds, the club's official former players association.
In the middle of the pitch, Mark Gonzalez and Jay Spearing will feature for the Reds again, while Dirk Kuyt returns to action to join the attacking options.
Tickets are on sale now and all funds raised from the game will support the work of LFC Foundation, as well as supporting beneficiaries including Forever Reds, Chelsea FC Foundation and Chelsea Players' Trust.
Tickets for the charity match are priced at £29 for adults, £19 for concessions and £9 for juniors and can be purchased here, with full selling details available here. Disabled supporters can visit the Accessibility Hub for full sale details.
Hospitality packages are also available from £195 including VAT. More information is available here, or by calling 0151 264 2222.
Eight previous legends matches at Anfield have raised more than £7.5 million and have helped LFC Foundation increase the number of people it supported to 127,000 last season.
Funds from the next legends match will help play a key role in LFC Foundation's new strategy, which aims to double fundraising efforts to reach the ambition of helping 500,000 people a season by 2030.
Money raised will also specifically support LFC Foundation's health programmes, which provide physical and mental wellbeing programmes for people of all ages.
