FORMER football star Paul Gascoigne will return to the North-East next month to speak to fans.

The ex-Newcastle and Middlesbrough midfielder will speak at An Evening With Paul Gascoigne at the Tyne Theatre and Opera House in Newcastle on Sunday, November 29.

Promoter Steve Wraith said: “Paul is in great shape at the moment and we are looking forward to his trip to the North-East for this very special show.

“We have a handful of tickets left available for the show from the Tyne Theatre but this is already close to being a 1200 capacity sell-out. That shows you how loved he is on Tyneside.”

Gascoigne said: “I’m really looking forward to coming back to Newcastle.

“Hopefully I will be able to catch up with some old team-mates and I’m sure this will be a great night for us all.”

Tickets, priced £40, are available on 0844-2491-000.
