Cote d'Ivoire and Chelsea striker, Didier Drogba, is among the stars set to play a charity match in Germany next week to help raise money for Africa.

Also in the squad is Cameroun's Samuel Eto'o. A selection of the world's top players will square up on July 12 at Bayern Munich's Allianz Arena to raise money for the charity Goal4Africa.

According to BBC Sport, the project plans to raise funds for football development and educational programmes throughout the African continent.

Fans will make a donation for each goal scored by their favourite player.

Italian World Cup winner, Gennaro Gattuso, will also be in Munich for the match.

Germany captain, Michael Ballack, and Liverpool's England midfielder, Steven Gerrard, are also expected to take part.

The idea is to help the continent prepare for the 2010 World Cup in South Africa and the event will also feature a concert by reggae band, UB40.
