>>> As soccer transfers go, Spencer Prior's $985,500 
move to Cardiff City will be remembered more for what has 
to be one of most bizarre contract clauses in the history 
of the sport.

In agreeing terms to join the newly-promoted second 
division club, the former Manchester City central 
defender will honor his contract by eating sheep's 
testicles and a cooked sheep's brain.

The clause was the idea of the Welsh club's Lebanese-born 
owner Sam Hammam, who believes that eating the Middle 
Eastern delicacy helped his players win promotion
last season.

Prior refused to eat them raw. "It must be the strangest 
contract in the history of football," he said. "But I'll 
try anything once."
