Still on soccer, we noticed that the pony-tailed buddhist footballer who also hunts wild game, Roberto Baggio, is set to become a feature of the London Stock Exchange. Baggio's new club, Bologna, is looking for a listing.
Lazio, where Gazza spent his less than impressive sojourn in Italian football, is also set to impress the suits of the City, while Juventus - Baggio's former club is also looking at London for a listing.
Certainly, the Italians will add a bit more glamour to the London stock market soccer sector, which - as well as having bluebloods like Man Utd and Spurs - includes such outstanding soccer centres as Millwall (Nobody likes us, we don't care, chant their supporters) and Scottish stalwarts Heart of Midlothian.
