When is Football Shirt Friday? Harry Kane helping to raise money for Bobby Moore Fund when fans encouraged to wear their favourite kit
It's almost Football Shirt Friday and talkSPORT is right behind the campaign to raise money for the Bobby Moore Fund.
Like Christmas Jumper Day, but for the humble football fan, Football Shirt Friday urges everyone to don their favourite kit and donate to help tackle bowel cancer.
Tottenham star Harry Kane has been a key figure in helping push the cause and encourage fans to show their team colours at home, work or school in aid of cancer research and there is even the chance to win some top prizes.
England legend and 1966 World-Cup winning captain Moore died of bowel cancer in 1993.
His widow Stephanie set up the fund in his name alongside Cancer Research UK shortly after and it has since raised nearly £30million.
England captain Kane said: “I never had the chance to meet Bobby, but every football fan knows about his achievements as a player and a leader.
“I’ll be wearing my shirt on Football Shirt Friday to honour his memory and raise money to help beat bowel cancer.
“It doesn’t matter who you support, just pick a shirt and get your mates and colleagues involved if you can. Let’s make Bobby proud.”
Alongside Kane, influencers Amy Christophers and Harry Pinero are helping to support the Bobby Moore Fund this Football Shirt Friday which will take place on November 19.
While wearing a kit, fans are being urged to share a selfie on social media using #FootballShirtFriday and donate.
