Random spot, but Rudi Vata's son, Rocco, is with Celtic's academy (the U12s).
Rudi Vata was one of the first Albanians to play abroad (with Celtic). I think he played against us in 1993, back in the days when not all matches were televised. I remember listening on Radio 1 as Anton Rrakli gave them the lead, but Stan and Cas (I think?) eventually pulled the win out of the bag.
He was Aiden McGeady's agent for a while as well.
There was a weird reason for that not to be televised. It was meant to be shown but the Albanian broadcaster were asking for a hape of cash from RTÉ. I was distraught as I have gotten off early from school to watch it and had to make to do with crappy highlights later and the radio during!
DID YOU NOTICE A SIGN OUTSIDE MY HOUSE...?
Marcus Thuram scored for France's U20s against Vietnam in the U20 World Cup today.
He was 1 when his dad scored twice in the real World Cup.
That was tasty. SHould have NSFW attached.
Some shot for his second! WHOOSH!
DID YOU NOTICE A SIGN OUTSIDE MY HOUSE...?
I see Jonathan Klinsmann is making his senior debut in nets for Hertha Berlin against Ostersunds tonight.
28 underage caps...for the US.
I see Angus Gunn playing for Norwich tonight in goal is the son of Bryan Gunn, also a Norwich keeper.
Scored on his full debut for the USA last night - https://www.bbc.com/sport/football/44287954
Gheorghe Hagi's son, Ianis, scored direct from a corner for the Romania U21's on Tuesday.
Weah has signed for Celtic on loan - http://www.celticfc.net/news/15566
Oan Djorkaeff scored for St Mirren in the Scottish League Cup there on Friday
Signs for Borussia Monch... some German team - https://www.bundesliga.com/en/bundes...-guingamp-5720
Erling Haland - son of Alfie - looks like he's going to be a huge player.
9 goals in the U20 World Cup earlier this year against Honduras.
Scored a hat-trick on his CL debut tonight for Red Bull Salzburg; first player to do that since Rooney.
It's his fourth hat-trick of the season - he's scored 17 goals in the first 9 games of 2019/20, which is incredible stuff
And it all started with not scoring against UCD in the Youth League less than 2 years ago!
Build him up just to knock him down, eh Stu!
Just trying to keep the guy grounded is all!
Serious career ahead of him surely, and he'll need someone like Conor Kearns to keep it all in focus at times
Linlithgow Rose 1-2 Falkirk in the Scottish Cup this evening.
Conor Sammon with two for Falkirk. Tommy Coyne with the reply for Rose. It's Tommy's son, who is their record scorer (or he was close to it two years ago anyway), with close on 300 goals for the club in 11 seasons.
I see yesterday that ex Celtic and Albanian ledgend Rudi Vata's son, Rocco Vata - has made his debut for his adopted Country's U-15 side.
His adopted country? - The Republic of Ireland!

Signed for Dortmund over the winter, after 28 goals in 22 games for Salzburg, including 8 in the CL group stages.
Came on as a sub for his debut today after 56 minutes, with them 3-1 down away to Augsburg.
Takes 181 seconds to score.
Adds another two inside 20 minutes.
Dortmund win 5-3.
Couldn't score against UCD U19s.
