Back of the net with kids' bedding
Parents who want to score a goal by creating the perfect bedroom for their own budding Wayne Rooneys without breaking the bank may wish to stock up on new kids' bedding.
By checking out bedding specialist elinens, mums and dads will be able to choose from around 40 different styles of children's duvet covers and other types of linen, with several different licensed football items available to boot.
And because each piece is made from high quality polycotton, parents can be secure in the knowledge that their little one is getting the best night's sleep, perfect for dreaming about one day raising the cup for their team themselves.
Get kitted out
Children living in the north-west may be keen supporters of Manchester United and parents could choose to play this to their own advantage by purchasing the team's complete duvet set.
Boasting the official Manchester United crest and including matching pillowcases, the set could allow children to create a theatre of dreams in their own home, while leaving friends and family in no doubt as to which premiership team gets their full support.

And mums and dads of Man U fans have plenty more to choose from as well and may wish to snap up a Ronaldo duvet cover and matching pillow or the special Champions of Europe duvet set - just in time for the Champions League final against Barcelona in Rome on May 27th.
However, if Manchester United is not a child's number one team, there is also kids' bedding for Chelsea, Celtic, Liverpool, Arsenal and Barcelona to choose from.
No football, no problem
And if football is not a child's thing, there are still plenty of duvet sets they may fall in love with.
Sporty kids may be keen to snap up the WWE Raw Smackdown set, although mums and dads may wish to discourage their children and their friends from holding their own wrestling matches on the bed.
Meanwhile, would-be boy racers may love to get tucked in each night under their own McLaren Mercedes Lewis Hamilton duvet cover, after a long day spent watching the Formula 1.
Parents may also wish to take a tip out of TV presenter Kirstie Allsopp's book, who on her recent Channel 4 show Kirstie's Homemade Home advised turning an old sheet or excess sheet or duvet case into a unique, fun and cheap blind.
