Paul Gascoigne has decided to join Iron Maiden on their current tour, according to a report.
The former footballer walked out on his partner Sheryl last week following a row over his old boozing pal Jimmy "Five Bellies" Gardner. He was later spotted with Gardner in Prague, where Iron Maiden were playing.
It has now been claimed that Gascoigne then followed the rockers to Croatia and plans to stick with them as the tour continues.
Gazza, who was discharged from rehab last month, first made friends with the band ten years ago.
"It can't be the right environment for a bloke who has just spent two months battling booze," a friend told the Daily Star. "He said he needs to clear his head - but how can he do that by banging it?"
Recent reports have suggested that Sheryl is "desperate" for Gazza to return home.
