The soccer star was set out for stardom when he appeared in the Lancashire Telegraph for his ball juggling skills aged just two.

Jordan, who is currently studying at Myerscough College, will compete with 24 of the nation’s ‘best street footballers’ for a ‘trip of a lifetime’.

The loyal Blackburn Rovers fan said it was ‘brilliant’ meeting the Manchester United and England striker, Wayne Rooney.

He said:”It has been an amazing experience and Wayne is really sound. I spent three days with him and it was brilliant.

“It was also a bit weird because I never thought I’d get as far as I did.”

Dribbling downhill, and a ‘dummy shoot out’ are just a few of the challenges that Rooney and the panel have to judge on Sunday’s show.

They will show off their skills in a series of street based challenges, designed to test their control, accuracy, speed and technique.

Jordan has also appeared on Match of the Day and Sky Sports thanks to his freestyling skills.

His dad Scott MacQuarrie said his son’s dream is starting to come true.

He said: ”The family are so proud of Jordan and how far he has come.

“It was surreal when the Sky Sports film crew came to our house in Blackburn.

"It’s fantastic that millions of people will be tuning into see Jordan and how far he has come.”

But only three footballers will make the final, and Scott said he isn’t giving anything away: “ Tune into Sky One on Sunday at 7pm for the first in the three-part series.
