The Sidemen Charity football match is set to take place Saturday, 18 April, at Wembley Stadium, but one man who will not be in attendance is Luke Littler.
Sidemen FC and YouTube Allstars will square off in aid of Bright Side and M7 Education with the game set to feature some of the biggest names in content creation, including KSI, Angry Ginge and ChrisMD.
Two big names that were expected to be taking part in the fixture will also not be at the game, as Logan Paul and iShowSpeed will be absent, with the pair in Las Vegas competing at Night 1 of WWE WrestleMania 42.
Littler is another name that will not be at the match despite the 19-year-old reposting an Instagram post by the Sidemen, who had announced that tickets for the annual match had sold out within hours.

The darts star tagged the group saying: “Get me in the team Sidemen."
However, KSI had a brutal response for Littler and his dreams of playing in the game during an appearance on Capital FM in March as he responded to a question about the darts star taking part.
KSI said: “I have not responded and he's not in.
“It sounds so bad, but we only have content creators on the Sidemen Charity Match.
"So, we haven't ever had a celebrity come on to play. That's more for, like, Soccer Aid. You never know, maybe one day we'll have Soccer Aid versus Sidemen."
This decision does not only apply to Littler, as KSI confirmed that if Justin Bieber had requested to play in this fixture, the Canadian would be rejected, as it is only for content creators.
KSI said: “I think for us we're focusing more on just content creators. That's how it's always been, and even if Justin Bieber wanted to play, we'd go, 'No! Content creators only.'"
