"Football isn't just a game"—it's life.

For 16-year-old David Jones, football is more than a sport; it's an escape, a calling, and the only thing that makes sense in a world full of challenges. The electric thrill of scoring a last-minute winner, the roar of the crowd—it’s the closest thing to freedom he knows.

But David's journey is far from simple. Blessed with extraordinary talent yet burdened by fiery anger, he’s fighting battles on and off the pitch. Growing up as the son of a Nigerian immigrant and a British mother, David navigates the pressures of cultural expectations, the weight of his own ambitions, and the scrutiny of a sport that demands perfection.

Passion drives him forward, but his temper holds him back. Can he channel his emotions and prove himself worthy of being football's next big star?
 David Jones: The Next big thing is a gripping coming-of-age story about resilience, identity, and the unrelenting pursuit of dreams.

The Next Big Thing

<p>Ole had just spent the entire two-hour flight from Germany to Manchester feeling like a man condemned. Every second in that cabin had been suffocating, the weight of the past few hours pressing down on him like an unbearable force. He sat stiffly in his seat, eyes staring blankly at nothing, yet acutely aware of everything around him. Every whisper, every glance, every hushed joke between the players—it all felt like it was about him. Maybe it was paranoia. Maybe it was the truth. Either way, it gnawed at him, a slow, relentless torture that refused to let up.</p>
