CORONATION Street actress Nikki Sanderson is set to become the centre of a Posh and Becks style storyline.
The former Tottington High School pupil, who plays hairdresser Candice Stowe is to get a footballer boyfriend - which leads to them being dubbed as Weatherfield's answer to Victoria and David Beckham by regulars in the Rovers.
Hairdresser Candice has so far been unlucky in love in the long running soap. Her last boyfriend, a shampoo salesman, turned out to be married and her other boyfriend Nick Tilsley dumped her for her friend Maria.
But when footballer Warren Baldwin, played by Danny Young, arrives in the soap shortly Coronation Street sources say it is not long before he and Candice are an item.
Warren is the son of new Underworld boss Danny Baldwin, played by comedian Bradley Walsh. The romantic storyline between Candice and Warren is set to continue until at least Christmas.
Nikki, aged 20, used to attend Affetside Primary School and Tottington High School. She is also a veteran of the Carol Godby Theatre Workshop.
