Lewis Capaldi is said to be aiming to put together a celebrity football team

An insider added to The Sun: "Lewis has found a home for life here and everyone loves him.

"He is a regular in a few of the local pubs and has got great banter with the locals.

"Lewis is a big football fan and has said he'd be keen to get involved if the chance came up.

"He's got a load of famous mates like Harry Styles in the area, and Liam Gallagher and Patrick Kielty live nearby too, so he could band together a whole team to take on the locals.

"He seems really happy and is in such a great place.

"Everyone who sees Lewis is so pleased to see how well he's doing."

Lewis has recently been seen in the area with his 24-year-old actress girlfriend Ellie MacDowall, as he relaxes away from stage due to troubles with his mental health and Tourette's syndrome.

The singer's second album 'Broken By Desire to be Heavenly Sent' went to No1 in the UK charts in 2023 and Lewis later launched an extended version of the record with five new songs - but stated at the time he was still going to be on a break from the spotlight due to his health.

He told fans: "I'm going to continue taking some time to carry on looking after myself, maybe writing some music and taking a moment to reflect on some of the most incredible years of my life.

"I want to make absolutely sure I'm 100 per cent before getting back out there again properly for more shows and doing what I love more than anything."
