Diogo Jota and John McGinn to represent Wolves and Aston Villa in ePremier League Invitational tournament
Diogo Jota and John McGinn have been selected to represent Wolves and Aston Villa in the inaugural ePremier League Invitational tournament.
The duo will each play as their respective teams on the immensely popular FIFA 20 video game, with games in the knockout tournament being broadcast online.
The competition pits top flight footballers against one another, with the final taking place on April 25 - shown live on Sky Sports.
Jota has represented Wolves previously against Villa last month, when he beat Ezri Konsa in a game set-up for charity in place of the original Premier League fixture which was due to take place at Villa Park.
The online competition's prize fund will be donated to the #PlayersTogether initiative, which was created by Premier League players as a collective way of generating funds for the NHS.
McGinn and Jota are part of a star studded cast of players announced so far, with Raheem Sterling, Wilfried Zaha and Trent Alexander-Arnold amongst the players for other clubs.
The full complement of top flight stars will be confirmed on Monday April 20 ahead of the opening draw. Games will take place from Tuesday until Friday. The semi-finals and final will be broadcast live on Sky on Saturday April 25.
Fans can tune into the action online via the Premier League website, app, YouTube, Facebook and Twitter channels; Sky Sports YouTube and Twitch channels as well on the Football Daily YouTube channel.
