Gardiner explained: “While he’s not a household name yet, he’s personable and could bring a light-hearted energy to the group.

“A lower fee might be realistic, but he could surprise everyone with his charisma.”

McCullough’s pay packet is significantly different from the more than £500,000 Coleen Rooney is said to be earning (the highest paid celebrity in 2024).
