Dan Osborne and Jeff Brazier to play in celeb football match to raise £200k for little boy with rare cancer

JEFF Brazier, Dan Osborne and Jake Quickenden are among famous faces playing in a football match to raise £200,000 for a boy, three, with rare cancer.

Archie - an identical twin who was diagnosed with stage 4 high risk neuroblastoma - has two tumours around his kidney and spine, and the disease has also spread to other areas, including his bones and bone marrow. Family and friends are trying to raise £200,000 to take the Tottenham Hotspur fan - whose identical twin brother Henry is not affected by the cancer - to Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Centre in New York for a trial vaccine treatment which may prevent the cancer from returning once he is in remission.

Quickenden told PA he hoped the event would raise lots of money, adding: "I can't begin to imagine what Archie's family are going through, especially with him being such a young boy.Quickenden's father Paul died in 2008 and his 19-year-old brother, Oliver, died in 2012. Both had forms of bone cancer.
