Boxer Ricky Hatton wants to work with Noel Gallagher on a Christmas single.
Oasis star Noel Gallagher could be asked by boxer Ricky Hatton to appear on a Christmas single, it has been reported.
The Manchester light welterweight fighter is planning to release a version of Jeff Beck's hit Hi Ho Silver Lining, after reworking the lyrics with comedian Joey Blower, according to the Sun.
However, Hatton is hoping celebrity friends, including the Oasis guitarist, will guest appear on the record, which goes by the name of Hi Ho Ricky Hatton.
An insider told the newspaper: "Ricky wants to get all his famous pals on board, like Noel and some of the Manchester City players.
"It might be tricky to get Noel to sing but he thinks he'll happily be on the video."
In related news, the Daily Star has reported that Noel has taken on Hatton as a bodyguard.
The boxer will introduce the Oasis as they take to the stage in Liverpool next week, while Noel is to carry one of the Hitman's world title belts before he fight Paulie Malignaggi next month in Las Vegas.
