All tickets for the charity game of legendary French Zinedine Zidane have been sold out, according to a local report on Wednesday.

The 4,500 seats available to the public were sold in exchange for non-perishable food products.

In Zidane's first ever visit to Brazil, the athlete will play along side greats like Aldair, Muller, Djalminha, Marcio Sanots, Silas, Mauro Silva and Ronaldo, among others.

According to the organizers, more than nine tons of food was donated to the needy town of Heliopolis, considered to be the largest slum of the area of Sao Paulo.

The game is scheduled to be held in Morumbi stadium.
