Richard Maddox, a once-promising football prodigy, dreamed of becoming a star. But just as his dream was within reach, it was abruptly shattered when he banged his head on the goalpost, fracturing his skull. Forced into early retirement, Richard vanished from the public eye.

People thought Richard Maddox was done for. However, no one expected that during his unconscious state, his spirit detached from his body. He drifted through time, witnessing the world of football from the perspective of a ghost. It was strange, unpleasant, yet exciting. No need for tickets or travel—he could simply fly.

England, Italy, Spain, Germany—the best football countries in Europe—and even the passionate South America, the energetic Africa, and the growing Asia—Richard observed the rise and fall of football giants, all from the sidelines.

However, watching football from the other side was quite different from experiencing it live. He missed the cheering, singing, and chanting with the other fans. No one could hear him now. No one could watch football with him. He was... alone. 

Just as Richard was about to be bored to death, his soul was sucked back, and he realized that only an entire year had passed.

'Interesting,' he thought, laughing. “I could bet, invest in companies that will succeed in the future, and get rich. Bitcoin, I'm coming, baby.”

but who could have guessed that Richard would dive so deep into the world of football—From owning a single share to testing the waters as a scout, trying his hand as an agent, and eventually stepping into the world of coaching, before finally diving into the realm of football club ownership. 

It has truly been a full spectrum of football, the highs and the lows. Join us as we welcome Richard Maddox!

Football Dynasty

Since the start of 1996, Richard had found himself unexpectedly busy.

First, there was Karren Brady and her mission involving Adidas and FC Girondins de Bordeaux.

Second, the Netscape IPO demanded his attention.

Third, he was targeting several Italian players for the next season, preparing for the worst-case scenario—that "City's shop" might really open.

Fourth, there were ongoing negotiations regarding Ole Gunnar Solskjær and Keith Gillespie.

January had flown by, week after week, and Richard had already spent three weeks in Brescia.

He had come with the hope of watching Andrea Pirlo in action during a Serie B match for Brescia. But to his frustration, Pirlo never got on the pitch, leaving Richard restless and eager for answers.

In the next fixture, once again Richard waited—yet unexpectedly, Pirlo remained on the bench, leaving him feeling helpless.

You're not a Second Baggio; you are Andrea Pirlo!
