Become A Football Legend

"What exactly is the point of this life of mine?"
Lukas Brandt thought to himself as he chugged down a cup of Wheat beer in a local pub in Darmstadt.

He had always dreamt of being a professional footballer, he fell in love with the sport when he watched his country Germany beat the Argentine national team in the World Cup final in 2014, with memories of his father hugging him tightly after Mario Gotze scored the goal that gave them the cup.

He had been 5 back then, currently 36, but his biggest regret was giving up at the first sight of failure at 15.

He had given up his dream of one day representing his country, and died (un)fortunately while trying to save a kid.

Waking up 20 years younger and with a system, follow Lukas' journey from an SV Darmstadt 98 academy reject, to undoubtedly the greatest footballer of all time.

Set in an alternate universe so some names and events will obviously be changed massively, else it'll just be a biography of a real life player :⁠')
