Adebayo Akinfenwa is set to make his pro wrestling debut later this month after retiring from football in May.

The 40-year-old former Wycombe Wanderers forward hung up his boots at the end of last season and is now swapping the football pitch for the ring in PROGRESS Wrestling as he accompanies Anthony Ogogo for his match with Mailk on October 23.
