The world's most expensive football player will be officially presented at Real Madrid today. I expect Ronaldo will take to the predicted 80,000 crowd a lot more than the confused/worried-looking Kaka did.

Chelsea dominate the UK football headlines today, in terms of things that are definitely happening and rumours; Carlo Ancelotti will talk to the UK press for the first time at 9.30 this morning and CSKA Moscow last night confirmed that Yuri Zhirkov had travelled to London for a medical, which will take place later today. The press are still persuing the Terry story, seeing both the player's and club's silence as being evidence a deal is still a possibility, despite the club issuing a press release on Friday stating they wouldn't comment further, no matter what "developments" may occur.

Franz Beckenbauer has given England's bid to host the 2018 World Cup a boost by telling Sepp Blatter England could "host the World Cup tomorrow" if needed.
