"As a footballer, what do you desire the most?"

For most footballers, the answer to that question was very simple, they all wanted the same thing.

Besides the goalkeepers, they all wanted to score more goals and win more awards because that was the criteria used to judge the best players.

However, Axel was different, just like every other footballer, he wanted to become one of the GOATs of the game if not the goat but he wanted to do it his own way.

Why do all the great players and legends have so many goals compared to the assists and none of the so-called great playmakers has been able to reach five hundred assists while a good number of great goal scorers has crossed that number for goals?

Is it because assists are harder to pull off compared to goals? No, it's because they are neglected.

If most players were to choose between a goal and an assist, they would pick goals all the way but assists are just as important, they all lead to the same result which is contributing toward winning the game.

If they are going to put goals ahead, then I am going to put assists ahead, I will surpass all their assists records and put an unbelievable gap between me and them.

I will become the first player to reach an unimaginable number of assists, I will become the god of playmakers and no one will ever come close.

This is my second attempt in trying to write a good football novel so please give this one a read, thank you.

The God Of Playmakers

Aurora had no idea of what was going on here but she knew something was about to go down, she recognized that hostility in Axel's gaze because he looked at her like that sometimes but it was never this intense.

"So what? I was just trying to play a harmless prank on a friend." Veronica retorted.

She wanted to stand her ground and clear this up as a misunderstanding but that didn't even get the slightest bit of reaction out of Axel and that was because he expected it.

"Play a harmless prank by deleting everything I sat down for over an hour to note down, how friendly of you."

"I wasn't actually going to delete it, I wouldn't do something like that to a friend, right, Aurora?"

She turned her gaze to Aurora at that moment but the moment the two made eye contact, Aurora quickly turned away.

"Yes you were and please you can drop the farce now," Axel responded calmly.
