Thud.
Nathan dropped back onto his bed, the phone still glowing in his hand.
The headlines danced across his screen like fireworks.
"€47 Million Wonderkid: Nathan Perry Signs for Manchester United!"
"The New Era Begins—United Secure the Championship's Crown Jewel."
"De Bruyne Who? Nathan Perry's Long-Range Legacy Lives On!"
Tch… He exhaled sharply, eyes fixed on the blinking notification bar. Dozens of interviews, hundreds of articles. Thousands—no, millions—of fans watching now.
His inbox was chaos.
Old academy coaches, ex-teammates, distant cousins. Some congratulating, some already asking for tickets. But one message stood out from the blur.
Coach Tyler Perry
"Proud of you. But don't forget what we talked about. Headlines fade. Champions keep writing new ones."
Nathan stared at the text for a long time.
Coach Tyler wasn't a man of flowery praise. But every word he said always carried weight.
