London, July 20: England’s FIFA World Cup flops will front a massive campaign for Mars chocolates this Christmas.
According to reports, Glen Johnson, Wayne Rooney, Frank Lampard and Shaun Wright-Phillips will be paid 100,000 pounds each to appear on special selection boxes.
“It’s great that we can use the FA link-up on the box. I think people will have forgotten about the World Cup by then,” The Daily Star quoted Bep Sandhu, Mars trade relations manager, as saying.
“Not all family members are going to care how England fared in South Africa,” he added.
Mars is one of the corporate giants who sponsored the England team for the World Cup in South Africa.
