Irish retailer Primark have been partnered with Soccer Aid since 2021 and this year designed stylish grey suits for England and beige for World XI.
And Fury, 36, loved the outfit so much he was still wearing it a day later posting on Instagram: "Off to a business meeting now.
"I've got my England managerial suit on, get up! Might get the job, who knows?"
Fury had fans in stitches when he accidentally swore twice live on ITV when geeing up his England squad.

He roared: "Seventy-five thousand sell-out. Unicef a great cause. Let's not forget these Three Lions on the floor.
"Let them know how good we are. We are England. We are f***ing Spartans."
Alex Scott said: "We apologise for the swearing."
Fury then swore AGAIN in the middle of the first half - prompting another apology from ITV - with Scott promising to "have a word with him afterwards".

Sam Thompson details the 'mentally freeing' moment he 'let go of his tough year' in gruelling Soccer Aid challenge after split from girlfriend Zara McDermott

Sam Thompson has detailed the 'mentally freeing' impact of his gruelling Soccer Aid challenge, after battling through injury to raise £2 million for Unicef. The Made In Chelsea star, 32, completed a 260-mile journey from London to Manchester earlier this month, despite suffering a calf injury on the first day. And speaking on his Staying Relevant podcast with pal Pete Wicks, Sam shared how the challenge finally allowed him to 'let go' of his struggles after a 'tough year.' The I'm A Celebrity champion split from girlfriend Zara McDermott in December after five years together, and he's since been linked with Love Island star Samie Elishi. Sam detailed how he broke down in tears during the challenge's fourth day as he cycled to Liverpool, struggling with the tough conditions and the pain of his injury. From A-list scandals and red carpet mishaps to exclusive pictures and viral moments, subscribe to the Daily Mail's new showbiz newsletter to stay in the loop. He said: 'There was a time on Thursday, and I haven't really said it to be honest with you, but I left a lot on that road, and it was one of the most mentally freeing times I've ever had in my entire life. 'Where we rode and ran, for the longest duration, and I finished in Liverpool. 'And you know I'm a bit of a talker, me and Tracy were on the bike, and it was so f*****g hard, the hills were so bad, my calf was killing, and you just had to channel something. 'I'm not going to say what it was, but I just left a lot of the year, that I've had, on that road, and I didn't speak to her for an hour and a half. 'And she said to me about 20 minutes into me not speaking, she goes ''whatever it is you're channelling right now, I need you to keep doing that.'' 'And I just started riding the bike whilst crying for an hour and a half, just tears streaming down my face, just riding like I've never ridden before, and I got to Liverpool, fell off my bike, burst into tears and sat on a bench and I've never felt so emotionally depleted, but also so at peace.' Sam's challenge was also featured in an ITV documentary, and viewers saw the heartwarming moment he was carried to a speedboat by Tony Bellew to cross Liverpool's famous Mersey. Sam battled through his agonising injury to complete his epic journey, and despite fears he'd be unable to play in the Soccer Aid match itself, he came on a substistute to play several minutes late into the game on Sunday. He also narrowly avoided an on-pitch run-in with singer Louis Tomlinson, who is now dating his ex Zara. The pair had been training together as part of the England team and reportedly held a 'peace dinner' before the match to 'ease awkwardness' over Louis, 33, dating Sam's ex Zara McDermott, 28. The I'm A Celeb champ was called onto the pitch, only after Louis had left, meaning they avoided coming face-to-face in front of the huge crowd during the match, which saw rapper Big Zuu score the winning goal to hand the World XI the win. Soccer Aid 2025 saw £15million raised for charity as this year's edition lived up to the extensive pre-match billings from fans and celebrities alike. Sam and Louis' dinner reportedly took place at Champneys in Tring, Herts with their other teammates in a bid to keep the peace ahead of the big game. A source told The Sun: 'There is no beef between the pair and they're both going to ensure their love lives don't distract from such a big charity spectacle. 'They are fully aware that their every move is being scrutinised and they've broken bread with their teammates, so it'll be smooth sailing on the day.' Instead of playing the game, Sam been helping from the sidelines as a coach after getting injured. Opening up about his injury, he spoke to This Morning hosts Alison Hammond and Dermot O'Leary. He said: 'I'm still very sore, still got the torn calf, however I am here at Soccer Aid HQ and it does not get better than this. 'We've still got the management team of England, we've got Vicky McClure, Tyson Fury, who's stepping into some new shoes and Harry Redknapp...' He continued: 'But also because I'm not going to be able to run around, you've also got me, part of the management team. Come on baby!' Late last year Sam split with former Love Island star Zara after five years together. It was then revealed in March how Zara had moved on with former One Direction singer Louis. During an episode of their podcast last month, Pete Wicks, 37, teased Sam about the prospect of the potentially awkward encounter between him and Louis. The TOWIE star asked his co-host: 'You're really going through it with the whole f****** body and dieting and training loads. Is that for Soccer Aid?' But, not dropping the subject, Pete then asked: 'Any kind of people in there who you're looking forward to playing with?' 'Loads,' Sam laughed: 'Tom Grennan. I'm really looking forward to playing alongside Wayne Rooney, Tyson Fury's the manager. I can't wait'. Pete joked: 'I mean that's gonna be f****** amazing. Make sure you get him on side though because you may need him in your corner in case you fall out with anyone. Not that you will but just in case there's any rivalries or anything. 'You know, you have to train together and it's a lot, you know when you're kind of in close quarters with someone like that. All sorts gets brought up. Anyway...'

Music icon supports Kneecap after calls for band to be axed from Glastonbury

Kneecap rapper Liam O hAnnaidh, 27, is due to appear at Westminster Magistrates' Court on Wednesday amid calls for his band to be removed from the 2025 Glastonbury line-up Liam O hAnnaidh and his Kneecap bandmates have received support from music legend Johnny Marr amid claims of a private and confidential letter being sent to Glastonbury bosses urging them to remove the Irish rap trio from the 2025 line-up. Rapper O hAnnaidh, who performs under the name Mo Chara, was charged by postal requisition over the alleged display of a Hezbollah flag at a gig at the O2 Forum in Kentish Town, north London, in November last year. The 27-year-old is due to appear at Westminster Magistrates' Court on June 18. Over the weekend, Love Music Hate Racism and Toddla T, husband of former Radio 1 DJ Annie Mac, blasted reports of an alleged letter signed by 30-plus "music industry individuals" calling on Glastonbury bosses to ban Kneecap from performing at the Somerset festival later this month. The Smiths legend Johnny Marr has joined the group's growing list of supporters ahead of O hAnnaidh's court date on Wednesday. In a statement shared on social media, the iconic guitarist said he respects artists "who use their platform to speak out against injustice" and called for an "end to the atrocities and a free Palestine." His statement in full reads: "After learning that calls have been made for Kneecap to be censored during their Glastonbury set, I think it's important that I make my own position clear. "I've played Glastonbury many times and the festival has always had a political aspect. It was founded as a place of free expression and political activism and it's a fact that I agreed to play there with The Smiths in 1984 purely because to do so at the time was a political act. "We are living through very troubling times, but for anyone who's been interested in me or my music over the last 40 years, I feel like my political stance has always been very clear. "Oppression fears artistic expression. I respect all musicians who use their platform to speak out against injustice, who promote compassion and equality and give voice to the voiceless. I stand with my audience and fellow musicians who call for an immediate end to the atrocities and a free Palestine. Johnny Marr." On Friday, Kneecap named the legal team which will defend band member O hAnnaidh against the terror charge. He will be represented by a team that includes Gareth Peirce, solicitor for WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange during his fight against US extradition, and Rosalind Comyn, who has represented Extinction Rebellion protesters in court. His legal team also includes Darragh Mackin from Phoenix Law, Brenda Campbell KC, Jude Bunting KC and Blinne Ni Ghralaigh KC. Mr Mackin was the solicitor for Sarah Ewart, whose successful legal challenge helped to usher in the decriminalisation of abortion in Northern Ireland, while Ms Campbell was the defence barrister in the collapsed case against Seamus Daly, who was accused of murdering people in the IRA bomb attack of 1998 in Omagh. Mr Bunting acted for non-profit company Liberty in the Stansted 15's successful conviction appeal after they broke into Stansted Airport to stop a plane deporting people to Africa, which was a case Ms Ni Ghralaigh also worked on. In an Instagram post the group said: "The British establishment is conducting a campaign against Kneecap which is to be fought in Westminster Magistrates Court… We are ready for this fight. We are proud to have such a strong legal team with us." Mr Mackin told the PA news agency: "It is difficult to comprehend a case of greater international importance in recent years. Kneecap has played an unrivalled role in standing up for those without a voice in Gaza. They speak truth to power when others shy away. "It is a great privilege to be instructed alongside my colleagues to defend the important principle of freedom of expression, in the pending battle before the London Court." In May, the Metropolitan Police said Kneecap were being investigated by counter-terrorism police after videos emerged allegedly showing the band calling for the deaths of MPs and shouting "up Hamas, up Hezbollah". They apologised to the families of murdered MPs but said footage of the incident had been "exploited and weaponised". They also said they have "never supported" Hamas or Hezbollah, which are banned in the UK. In 2024, the band released an eponymous film starring Oscar-nominated actor Michael Fassbender which is a fictionalised retelling of how the band came together and follows the Belfast group on their mission to save their mother tongue through music. Formed in 2017, the group, made up of O hAnnaidh, Naoise O Caireallain and JJ O Dochartaigh, are known for their provocative lyrics and merchandise as well as their championing of the Irish language. Their best-known tracks include Get Your Brits Out, Better Way To Live, featuring Grian Chatten from Fontaines DC, and 3Cag.

An absolute joy: Timmy Mallet completes cycle around island of Ireland

While on the 6,000km cycle of roads, paths and greenways, he discovered a family link to Blacksod Lighthouse in Co Mayo that has deeply affected him. The colourful personality is known for his children's television series in the 80s and 90s and cover of Itsy Bitsy Teeny Weeny Yellow Polka Dot Bikini. He embarked on a cycle circumnavigation around Great Britain in 2023 to raise awareness of people's potential after the death of his brother Martin, who had Down's Syndrome and died in 2018. He began a cycle along Northern Ireland's and Donegal's coast in March last year, before returning to cycle around the whole island. 'This is the completion of my cycle circumnavigation of the island of Ireland,' he said at Stormont on Monday. 'I kicked off in lashing rain in March last year when I aimed to see if I could do a cycle circumnavigation of Northern Ireland.' He said he then decided he would add the 'forgotten county' of Donegal. 'Further north than Northern Ireland, but in the south. I love that nuttiness,' he said. 'Five hundred and fifty miles after completing Donegal, I thought to myself I'd like to come back and see if I could do the Wild Atlantic Way.' He said he put aside two months to do as much of the Wild Atlantic Way as possible, and got as far as Kinsale in Co Cork. 'I phoned up Mrs Mallet and she said 'I'm having the bathroom done, so just keep going, I'm not ready to have you home yet, Mallet'.' He said it was 'an absolute joy' to complete the circumnavigation of the island. He added: 'There's something about the kindness and generosity on this island that is really lovely. It's profoundly gorgeous, this welcome that comes across the whole of Ireland. 'I am thrilled to say I have got a squillion new friends in Ireland and I love it. It's almost in the DNA of the Irish actually to say 'welcome, come on in, we're your friends'.' He said Ireland had 'an understanding of differences' and celebrated things that bring people together. He added: 'I'm inspired on this journey by my brother Martin (who had) language and learning difficulties. He never let Down's Syndrome define him. He'd say 'You and me, I'm happy.' 'That's about being in the moment, celebrating the here and now of living. It reminds me that all we have to do in life is reach our potential. We don't have to be the best in the world, just the best that we can be.' He recounted highlights of the trip, including a family connection at a Mayo lighthouse and a person who helped during Wacaday filming 35 years ago. 'I went to Blacksod Lighthouse in Co Mayo which has got a family connection for me that I didn't know,' he said. 'The weather forecast for D-Day was supplied by Maureen Sweeney in June 1944 and my mum was working at supreme headquarters, at the time, on the weather forecasting for D-Day. 'And Maureen's grandson Fergus tells the story of how a squeaky-voiced English lady phoned up to check Maureen's reports. That was my mum. 'This connection of two women, in a cataclysmic world event, doing their bit for freedom has had a profound impact on me. 'I also loved the journey down further south, in Dingle, where I meet Jimmy Flannery who had taken me, 35 years ago during the Wacaday filming, to meet and swim with Fungi the dolphin. 'And here he is there still and we shared happy memories of that day of filming 35 years ago in 1990. 'On the border between North and the Republic, I came across that lovely conundrum, if you like, where somebody's house is in the UK but their garden is in the Republic. 'They were living with it all day every day and enjoying the best of both sides of that wee border.' He added: 'I'm coming back, I love you. Keep 'er lit. This is a gorgeous, gorgeous country.' Deputy First Minister Emma Little-Pengelly met with Mallet at Stormont on Monday.
