Manchester United Stars to Be Tracked Via RFID?

Via The RFID Weblog.

If a recent report from UK is to be believed it states that it might be possible for the USDA to use RFID tags and satellites for tracking individuals from space.

As per Manchester Evening News, a chip of the size of rice might be embedded under the skin of stars such as Gary Neville, Wayne Rooney and Rio Ferdinand. Satellites would be used for tracking their exact position so that United's training staff would be able to monitor movements during a training session or match.

The bosses have confirmed that the technology was under consideration but a decision was still pending. It is believed that the technology has already been implemented in South America which has witnessed instances of footballers being kidnapped.
