It's going to be an emotional day for Roma as Francesco Totti brings an end to his 25-year career at the club.

To mark the occasion Roma players will wear a commemorative shirt for the Serie A game against Genoa at the Stadio Olimpico.

Each jersey will bear a "Totti 10" logo on the sleeve and the slogan "Una squadra per la vita," meaning "one team for a lifetime," written underneath.

Antoine Griezmann is in for a busy summer, what with being constantly forced to dodge questions regarding his future at Atletico Madrid or the odds of him joining Manchester United.

Turns out he's pretty good from beyond the arc!

Wait for it... ������ Tag a mate who's theatrical ��​

For many avid fans, football is a matter of life and death. So it's only natural that, as and when they shuffle off this mortal coil, their wish would be to spend eternity as close to their beloved team as possible.

Real Madrid supporters are being offered just that luxury with the unveiling of custom coffins designed in the form of the Bernabeu stadium, complete with the club crest on the lid.

It turns out Lionel Messi isn't the only global footballing superstar with an Iranian lookalike.

Sure enough, it would appear that Cristiano Ronaldo has a doppelganger living and working in Tehran, too.

Indeed, Iranian voters flocked to take selfies with Reza Alireza Lou while voting in their presidential elections after mistaking the local chap for the Real Madrid icon.
