ENGLAND legend Peter Shilton will join scores of budding young players at the Emirates Stadium on Saturday for a feast of football.

The goalkeeper, still England’s most-capped player, will turn out at Arsenal’s home ground to help kick-off the London-leg of the Tesco Football Roadshow.

Youngsters between five and 11 years old will take part in a series of fun training drills, as well as getting the chance to have their picture put on Match Attax cards just like their heroes.

Looking ahead to the event, Shilton, who will also take part in a Q&A session on Saturday, said: “Football fever is high during the World Cup, so it will be a great time to provide fans and new enthusiasts with a fun, interactive event.”
