TWO-TIME Premier League winner Joleon Lescott became the latest big name to join the Baller League.
The former England star, 42, was announced as a Week Two wildcard pick for Deportrio.
They are managed by fan favourites Alan Shearer, Micah Richards and Gary Lineker.
And now-TNT Sports pundit Lescott started from the beginning in Monday’s 7-3 win against N5 FC, managed by Arsenal legends Jens Lehmann, Robert Pires and Freddie Ljungberg.
His arrival even saw KSI react by saying: “Lmao well then…” before the YouTube star cheekily joked that the veteran defender needed a new haircut.
Lescott is certainly a fine addition to Deportrio’s squad and he helped them seal a 7-3 on his debut.
They already boast several former Premier League stars in Marvin Sordell and Bakary Sako.
But Lescott’s pedigree might make him the most accomplished player in the entire Baller League.
The ace played 235 times for Wolves before moving to Everton in 2006.
He starred 143 times for the Toffees and then sealed a £22million switch to Manchester City in 2009.

Lescott clocked up 160 games at the Etihad while helping the club to two titles, an FA Cup and a Carabao Cup.
The 26-time England international then starred for West Brom, Aston Villa and AEK Athens before ending his career at Sunderland in 2017.
