Improve your fancy football footwork with tips from professional football freestyler Dan Magness and football scout John Griffin

The domestic football league is over and we didn't make it into in Euro 2008, but there will be plenty of British football going on in parks and pitches across the nation this summer!

There is home-grown talent out there - it's just a matter of players being discovered. Who knows where the next Jimmy Greaves or Gary Lineker could come from? Anyone who thinks they could be the next Ronaldo should make a film of their keepy uppy skills and upload it on to the Pringles football competition website for the chance to meet Michael Owen and star along side him in a TV advert.

If you think you have the skills, do you really know what it takes to make it to the big time, the best way to build on your talent or what scouts are looking for in potential future stars?

These questions and more are answered in the video below featuring Dan Magness, a professional football freestyler. His talent has taken him all over the world and he has coached an intimidating number of football legends including Fernando Torres, Michael Owen, Dirk Kuyt and Thierry Henry.

This video shows off Dan's trickery and the man himself talks all about his experiences as a top football coach. Also featured in the video is ex-football scout John Griffin, the man responsible for discovering English football legends like Ian Wright and Stan Collymore. John tells us what he looks for in young players who could one day be lifting the Premier League trophy or even the World Cup, and how nearly every player can improve their technique.
