The match is to be held on June 4, with all money raised after expenses being distributed to selected charities through the newly created Michael Carrick Foundation.

"I hope to raise as much money as possible for my Foundation to help make a difference to children's lives," Carrick said in a statement.

"It's something I'm very passionate about and I would like to thank everyone who has contributed to making this testimonial possible."
