His segue from superstar midfielder to shiller of hair stuff might have been slightly jarring for Luis Figo lovers, but as this honorary Kickette is happy to confirm (left), he doesn’t have to be nekkid to attract  some’come to mama’ side-eye. Image: Epsilon/Getty Images Europe.

The Midweek Mmm: Iker Casillas For GQ España

Shot by steven Klein October 2011

As we previously mentioned, Iker Casillas is featured in the October issue of GQ Espana, which was first teased in this Reebok video posted on the mag’s site two days ago. Well, thanks to some pulling of  a few strings and public pleading, we finally got our hands on one of Steven Klein’s exclusive shots from those fine Spanish folks. And boy did they pick a good one to send us.

Side note: its moments like these that make us stop and think. Until now, we never really understood just how vast and equally vapid our readership was. To know that some, if not all of you are willing to put yourselves and your jobs at risk in the name of sharing some GQMF Iker goodness actually brings tears to our dry eyes.

But enough with the sappy stuff. Mr Casillas, your presence is kindly requested in our HQ’s Boom Boom Room. It’s down the first hall, make a left at the Mayhem and Fruit Beverages Suite and enter the second door on your right. And please let it be at our earliest conveniences. Thank you.

Pause for a moment, Kickettes, and feast your eyes on Niko Kranjčar’s reaction to our Croatian correspondent’s unscheduled entry** (via the window, on a rope, blind with lust or possibly the previous evening’s make-up) into Wednesday’s Adidas Predator launch in Zagreb.

After he’d recovered, and our intrepid reporter had taken advantage of the on-site medical facilities, he broke away from boot porn banter to talk about his private life and plans for the future. You can just stare at his tousled beauty for the rest of your life (you can, we tried it) but we recommend you follow the jump for information vital to any decent stalking campaign.

Your choice.

Some of us found this far too easy; the other ones we awoke from their ‘lunch break’ were stumped.

Kickettes, can you identify who this baby faced ‘baller before-he-was-famous is?

If we didn’t love Harry so much, we’d be forced to point out our upset that, posture-wise at least, Jamie is turning into his Dad. But we do, so we won’t. The Tottenham manager and his commentating son took in the QPR v Bolton Wanderers match together this past Saturday.

David Villa kisses a dolphin in Miami

On their pre-season jaunt across the USA, FC Barcelona’s marketing department has been hard at work whoring out the ballers for a variety of causes and events. They’ve been busy curing diseases, reliving the glory days in celebrity matches and keeping kids active and out of trouble. While that’s all fine and dandy, we can definitely say their latest stunt (Xavi, Victor Valdes, Sergio Busquets, Pedro Rodriguez and David Villa playing with dolphins in Miami) is a Kickette HQ favourite.
