Thank you very much for your company and anecdotes of meeting footballers on holiday.
Let me leave you with today’s Football Daily.
“At the age of about 12 I was out for dinner in quite a swish place in Madrid with my parents,” says Nicolas. “A very glamorous couple came and sat at the next table, turning around I realised it was Figo at the height of his powers at Real Madrid and his girlfriend, a few minutes later none other than newly minted Galactico David Beckham walks in with Victoria and joins Figo for a slap up meal.
“I had my arm in a cast at the time and despite my pleading my parents refused to let me ask any of their table for an autograph. Fair enough but I was in a right sulk for the rest of the holiday.”
Imagine what that cast would be worth now …
