The footballer was joined by tennis ace Andy Murray and Olympic gold medal-winning heptathlete Denise Lewis to meet with Prime Minister Gordon Brown to back the Malaria No More UK campaign.
The athletes want Brown to meet his promise to deliver 20 million malaria nets to Africa by next year. In the past 12 months, the UK has delivered nearly 10 million nets to Africa and a further 1.9 million are on order.
