With youth and senior qualifiers on the horizon, Fifa’s aborted plan to sell stakes in its major tournaments would have heavily impacted the women’s game Despite not having been deemed worthy of more than a single mention in Fifa’s 25-page sales deck to its 211 member associations on its doomed proposal to sell off stakes in the World Cup to private investors, now very expensive waste paper, it was women’s football that had found itself on the frontline in the fight for the “soul of football”. Uefa’s statement that European national teams would not “participate in any Fifa competition for so long as these proposals remain alive, unless this proposal has been abandoned in its entirety and binding assurances have been given that Fifa will never again open its governance or competitions to private ownership”, was a bold, necessary and effective declaration of war against the Fifa president, Gianni Infantino.

Marketing stunt or ‘extraordinary’ transfer? Ravenna fans ride wave of the Ronaldinho Effect

Brazil legend’s decision to play in Serie C at 46 has divided fans – but the man who arranged the deal has high hopes On a scorching summer afternoon in Ravenna, a city far better known for its fifth-century Byzantine mosaics and Dante’s tomb than for footballing glory, eyes are peeled in the historic centre for one of world football’s most recognisable figures – a man who featured in the World Cup final half-time show alongside Madonna and Ronaldo: Ronaldo de Assis Moreira, better known as Ronaldinho. “We haven’t seen him yet,” four Ravenna supporters sitting at a cafe say with dry irony as they flip through La Gazzetta dello Sport, Italy’s famous pink sports daily. They are undeniably sceptical, viewing the signing as a purely commercial operation, yet deep down they still harbour the dream of seeing the 2005 Ballon d’Or and 2002 World Cup winner wear their yellow and red shirt.

Whether with AC Milan, his only club during his two decades as a professional, or Italy, with whom he reached the 1994 World Cup final, he was a stylish, quick-witted, unflappable and commanding presence, primus inter pares alongside distinguished colleagues.
