A man in China has trademarked a silhouette of French captain Zinedine Zidane headbutting Italian defender Marco Materazzi in the FIFA World Cup final.

Zhao Xiaokai wants to sell the image for use on clothing, shoes, hats and beer products, and hopes it will fetch as much as $125,000.

However, according to The Register, Zidane has fought to protect his image rights before. Last year he and four other soccer stars - David Beckham, Luis Figo, Raul and Ronaldo - joined their club, Real Madrid, in filing infringement suits against seven online bookies that allegedly used their names and images in online marketing material without consent.
