Alexander Marshall was once England’s brightest footballing talent — until a brutal injury shattered his dreams before they ever took flight. Cast aside by the sport he loved, forgotten by the world, and left with nothing but regret… Alex dies at 27 with only one wish in his heart:

“Give me one more shot.”

The universe listened.

He wakes up in 2012, sixteen years old again — back when his boots were clean, his knees unbroken, and Manchester United was still ruled by legends.

But this time, he’s not alone.

Ding!
[Welcome to the Football System: Train. Compete. Rise.]
[Objective: Become the Greatest of All Time.]

Armed with a game-like interface, training boosts, skill quests, and the mysterious Mentorship Path — where he can inherit traits from legends like Wayne Rooney and Paul Scholes — Alex is determined to rewrite history.

From Carrington’s training ground to the Theatre of Dreams, he’ll face jealous teammates, tactical tests, system glitches, and emotional reunions.

But one thing’s for sure…

This time, Alexander Marshall isn’t just chasing a contract —
He’s coming for the crown.
