Angry Ginge is reportedly set to join this year’s I’m A Celebrity Get Me Out Of Here! as his name is added to the rumoured line-up.
The huge social media star, whose real name is Morgan Burtwistle, already boasts more than three million followers across TikTok and Instagram.
The popular streamer and YouTuber, 21, known for his high-energy, emotional gameplay took part in ITV’s Soccer Aid, earlier this year, where he played alongside a whole host of famous faces at Old Trafford.
After his performance, which saw him many fans called for him to play pro, Tyson Fury told him that he ‘smashed it’.
Footballing icon Wayne Rooney described his play as ‘class’ and singer Tom Grennan said it was ‘one of the best things’ he’d ever seen.
It was only fair then, that he was crowned Man of the Match.

And it is thought that bosses are keen to bring him on board the Bushtucker Trial show after last year’s hit with fellow influencer GK Barry.
A source told The Sun: ‘ITV bosses always like to have a social media superstar on their cast, especially after GK Barry proved such a success last year.
‘Angry Ginge has bags of personality and was really friendly to everyone at Soccer Aid this year.
‘He made a great impression.’
The Daily Mail has contacted ITV and Angry Ginge’s representatives for comment.
Other stars rumoured to be heading into the jungle include Lisa Riley and EastEnders favourite Shona McGarty.
Lisa, 49, has played Mandy Dingle on the legendary soap for 30 years, making a bombshell return to the village six years ago.
The soap star has made it no secret that she is a fan of the show, meaning she could follow in the footsteps of many Dales favourites such as Danny Miller, Gemma Atkinson and Adam Thomas by taking part in the show.

Angry Ginge is no stranger to working alongside other famous faces and regularly shares his biggest moments online, from working with football icons like Wayne Rooney

Last month, it was reported that ITV were planning to keep I’m A Celebrity on screens for the next five years, bringing the show up to a landmark 30th series.
Sources claimed ITV have opened talks with Australian bosses to secure the area of jungle where they film until 2030.
Angry Ginge is no stranger to working alongside other famous faces and regularly shares his biggest moments online, from working with football icons like Wayne Rooney, hanging out with Darts legend Luke Littler, to clashing on Argentine legend Carlos Tevez.
During Soccer Aid, with the game poised at 4-4 in the latter stages, Angry Ginge went in for a strong slide tackle on Carlos, who left a nasty cut on his leg during the collision.

But he was not done there and taking to Twitch, he later bragged his programme had been signed by other Soccer Aid favourites, before launching into a re-imagination of ‘Zombie’ by the Cranberries.
The football influencer sang: ‘In your head, in your head, Tevez, Tevez, Tevez-ez-ez, I’m in your head, in your head, Tevez, Tevez, Tevez-ez-ez,’
But in a moment of humility, he later added: ‘I will be honest, he did score four.’
