More football stars take a "perfect" Costa Calida holiday

The football team are in the Coca-Cola Championship play-off final against Burnley at Wembley this month - with the winner set to receive a £60 million windfall due to gaining promotion to the Premier League.

In preparation the team swapped rainy Britain for the sun-soaked La Manga and its three golf courses, 28 tennis courts and luxury spa.

Sheffield United manager Kevin Blackwell said: "It has been ideal preparation. The resort is perfect, the pitch is perfect and the weather is perfect – we just hope we can follow it up with the perfect result at Wembley."

La Manga is home to eight international-standard grass pitches - which may be eight of the reasons why so many footballing superstars are attracted to the resort.

What is more, holiday makers can rub shoulders with such internationals by renting a family villa there.
