It will be staged at Chelsea’s home ground just over a year after Russian billionaire Roman Abramovich was forced to sell the club following Vladimir Putin’s invasion.
The Sun report former England captain Beckham, ex-Three Lions defender turned pundit Ferdinand and TV host Scott will feature in the game.
Former Chelsea striker Andriy Shevchenko and Arsenal’s Oleksandr Zinchenko – both Ukrainians – are tipped to captain the two teams.
Game4Ukraine will raise money for the United24 charity established by the Ukrainian president Volodymyr Zelensky.

A source told The Sun that Game4Ukraine ‘will be the biggest charity event of the year’ with a ‘huge half-time show’ as well as the match.
It is being organised by Lester Holcombe, whose 2017 Game4Grenfell raised £900,000 for victims of the tower block fire in London.
Abramovich announced his plans to sell Chelsea, the club he bought in 2003, back in March last year – days after Russia’s invasion of Ukraine began.
The oligarch put in over £1.5billion to bring considerable success to the Stamford Bridge club during his ownership but was sanctioned over his links to Russian president Putin.
A consortium led by American investor Todd Boehly bought Chelsea for £4.25bn in May last year.
