On June 1st last it was announced that the Brazilian player Arthur Zico had signed a contract with the Italian club Udinese.
This was a strange piece of news to say the least. Many consider Zico, "The White Pele", as the best player in world football today. But few people outside Italy have heard of Udinese - a club situated in Udine (population 100,000) an hour's journey from Venice.
