Athletes

While none of the available stars are licensed, they are all based on real players in appearance and name: Zenon Zadkine is Zinedine Zidane, Jordan Krüger is Jürgen Klinsmann and Raimundo is Ronaldo, for instance.

Title

The title refers to the Libero position in football, an Italian concept whereby a player stays at the back ahead of the goalkeeper, covering in case of mistakes by other defenders and marshalling his troops, often launching attacks with a well-placed pass. In English football parlance he is often known as the 'sweeper'.
