Kevin Davies to play alongside Mendieta & Salgado in Barbados Legends tournament

Tropical beaches, vacationers, and some footballing legends. Those three things will meet for the third year running at the eight-team Barbados Legends tournament. Greats from Arsenal, Chelsea, Everton, Liverpool, Manchester United, and Spurs are on show along with a team made of of "PFA Stars" and greats from the Caribbean nations.

Normally, this sort of thing isn't our cup of tea but the 2013 edition will feature a Bolton legend in Kevin Davies. Davo has just been confirmed as a member of the PFA All Stars team and will play alongside Gaizka Mendieta, Michel Salgado, Nolberto Solano, Pierre van Hooijdonk, Ugo Ehiogu, and one other player yet to be named.

We are pleased to announce that @kevindaviesbwfc will be playing in the #barbadoslegends #BWFC
