LIFE IN MADRID FOR YOUNG STEFAN

Stefan entered and took a backseat where he could wave on to his parents and say goodbye. He waved on to them and the plane took of. Victoria felt they should also move in Spain to support their son but Marcus opted they let him be on his own to survive. Marcus wanted him to get some maturity on his own then they later go to give him support. Marcus told Victoria they should keep working in order to provide for their son in Spain. They then left the airport and went back to London. Inside the plane Stefan was just feeling sad of leaving home. The flight was a long one from England to Spain. Stefan was trying to pass time by watching movies on Netflix. It was a long evening so he slept and woke up when the flight was landing. The plane landed and he now went to look for a hotel to sleep for the night. The good thing was he was given directions by the sporting director where he would be attended to. He got one of the hotels to stay in for the night. The next day he was taken around the city of Madrid to be shown how the city looks like. The city of Madrid is a very beautiful city. Stefan was fascinated by the beautiful view of Spain. He was enjoying the tour around the city. Time went by so fast the day came to an end. The next day he went to visit the Madrid museum to see the achievements of the club. There he got to see all the champions leagues won by real Madrid. He also got to see all the individual awards won by some of the club legends. He even got to meet some of the best players like Zinedine Zidane. Stefan was living his dream, even though he did not get the chance to watch him play he knows he is a great player. He got to hear stories about him from his father Marcus. He did not waste the opportunity to go and have a chit chat with the great Zidane. He also told him of how he is so loved by his father Marcus. Stefan also told him of the impact he has left in Ghana. They shared a warm embrace and Zidane had to leave, but before he left Stefan got to take a selfie so that he could show Marcus. Afterwards he left to go and meet some of his peers and others who are much younger. They got to interact with him and tell him more about the club. Young Stefan still felt some how alone he did not see any black person around him. The day came to an end and he had to go to back to his hotel. He went straight away and took the chance to talk to talk to his parents. He called his father and they got to talk a lot mostly about football. Marcus was happy to hear his son was doing well in a foreign country. Stefan told him about meeting the legend Zinedine Zidane. Stefan told him they even got to take pictures. Stefan also got to speak to his mother and they got to do some bonding on the phone. Victoria told him they will find time to see him in Spain. Soon Stefan had to say goodbye to them. He went to sleep since he knew the next day he was supposed to do the official presentation. The next morning he was up early as usual and went to do some training to keep fit. He took a morning jog and did some basics. He then went and took a cold shower and he was off to the Santiago bernabeu. There he got to finally meet the club president Florentino Perez, they shared a warm embrace. He was presented with a real Madrid jersey. He went to the dressing room and put on a full jersey and went to the pitch. There he got to meet the head coach Carlo Anceloti. He was welcomed and they took photographs. Stefan saw a lot of media people taking photographs and filming him. He had never seen such a big press around him. The fans also embraced him and cheered him from the stands. The thing which everyone wanted to see was him doing a freestyle. Stefan had never before done a freestyle in his life. Nevertheless he was up against the challenge. He went and took the ball and started juggling. It soon fell to the pitch, he tried once again and it fell once more. He had to try and juggle slowly with 2 feet and it worked out well for him soon he stopped. Took the ball and went to say hallo to the Madrid fans. Soon the presentation was over. He was registered and was now ready to represent the club.
