Hey Futbolrs, as you know we are always keeping you in the mix w/ the lifestyle of your favorite sport. Here's a new section that will keep you close to the travelling pros. We call it Place Kick, a quick Q & A with focus on what the players are up to.
First up we have Edson Buddle of FC Ingolstadt of Bundesliga 2. Currently, with their eyes on a title season, Die Schanzer are in pre-season training across the border to the east. Here's former LA Galaxy striker taking a Place Kick for Futbolr.
