More Premier League Stars to Play at Lazur in the "Match of Hope"

The Stiliyan Petrov Foundation is delighted to announce the latest three football stars who will be joining the charity "Match of Hope" on June 6th at 5:00 PM at Lazur Stadium in Burgas.

David Bentley

A benchmark for exceptional technique, precise crosses, and unconventional footballing intelligence. An Arsenal academy product, he shone brightest at Blackburn before moving to Tottenham, where he etched his name in history with a phenomenal 35-yard goal in the North London derby. He boasts over 200 Premier League appearances and 7 caps for England.

Georgios Samaras

The embodiment of power and a keen eye for goal, Samaras left a significant mark in England. After a solid spell at Manchester City, he became a Celtic legend, winning four league titles. For Greece, he earned 81 caps, including a memorable goal that sent his homeland into the knockout stages of the 2014 World Cup.

Sébastien Bassong

A symbol of athleticism and composure, the Cameroonian defender made a strong impression at Newcastle, earning him a transfer to Tottenham. He later became captain and a key figure at Norwich. With nearly 200 Premier League appearances and participation in the 2010 World Cup, he remained one of England's most reliable defenders.
