Gascgoine, who has struggled with alcohol addiction, was star of the Italia 90 World Cup for England alongside Gary Lineker. 

But while he hoping to earn several thousand pounds speaking to punters in a pub, Lineker will be fronting the BBC’s football coverage of the World Cup in Russia.

Other notable names will provide analysis on TV channels, which will earn them significant money contracts. 

Paul Stevens, General Manager at Viva, told The Mirror: ‘I love big names coming to Viva, but as a Spurs fan I can’t wait.

‘The world cup with Gazza! It’s doesn’t get much better, “it’s coming home”.’
