British rapper Big Narstie makes hilarious blunder after revealing he MIXED UP US Open champion Emma Raducanu with former Arsenal legend Nwankwo Kanu when agreeing to appear in Sports Direct Christmas ad

Emma Raducanu may be one of Britain's most popular athletes right now, but it would appear she can still be confused with a former Premier League star.

Earlier this month, the teenager appeared in Sports Direct's Christmas advert alongside Manchester City's midfielder Jack Grealish and a host of other sport stars.

Rapper Big Narstie also appeared in the clip, where he expected to come across former Arsenal striker Nwankwo Kanu following a rather embarrassing mix-up.

Emma Raducanu became the first British women to win a Grand Slam tournament since 1977.
Nwankwo Kanu spent 14 seasons in English football with three different clubs.
The British rapper admitted the blunder during his TV show on Channel 4

The TV show host revealed he had agreed to feature on the Christmas ad as he wanted to meet the Nigerian, but was left surprised when the US Open champion showed up instead.
