More internationals in Keith Alexander benefit line-up

Alexander led Lincoln City to four successive play-off campaigns

Six more internationals have been confirmed to play in a benefit match in memory of ex-Macclesfield and Lincoln manager Keith Alexander next month.

Ex-Holland and Chelsea striker Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink will play for an all-star XI against a team of Alexander's former players at Sincil Bank on 3 May.

Joining the Dutchman are England's Les Ferdinand, Dion Dublin, Robert Lee, Steve Hodge and Lee Sharpe.

So far 10 former internationals have confirmed they will play in the match.

Other big names who will appear are Paul Merson, Des Walker, Brian Deane and Mark Walters.

Another former England international, MK Dons boss Paul Ince, will take charge of the all-stars while Alexander's long-time assistant, Macclesfield manager Gary Simpson, will lead the team of his ex-players.

It includes nine members of Lincoln's 2003 play-off final squad, five other former Imps players and four who played under Alexander at Peterborough.

Money raised from the game will go to the family of Alexander, who died suddenly in March aged 53.
