The most common dream of kids in Italy is undoubtedly to become a footballer. Just ask a group of friends at the park “what would you like to do when you grow up?” And the answer would be unanimous, because that's the dream, and children like to dream.
Marco Stranges
Unfortunately, for the vast majority of children, being a footballer will remain just a dream. Only the best will succeed, those who add hard work, personality and sacrifices to talent. This category certainly includes the young talent of Conflenti (a small village in the province of Catanzaro): Marco Stranges.
Marco is not yet an established footballer, but he is certainly on the right path to realize his dream, especially after the letter received a few days ago, signed Dominik Beckenbauer, in charge of the scouts of one of the most important clubs in the world, the Bayern Munich.
Who is Marco?
But let's try to tell what preceded this invitation from Bayern to Marco, that is, how he came to be such a sought-after player, even by top European clubs.
Marco has always loved football, a passion shared and nurtured by his father Lorenzo who has always guided and advised him.
The first steps coincided with the first kicks at a ball, and even as a child, Marco was always traceable, you knew exactly where he was, in case anyone should worry, Marco was there: at the soccer field of Conflenti. Growing up, it was impossible not to notice the difference between Marco and the others, so much so that he had to and wanted to play with the older ones who taught him to free himself from a tough marking and to resist kicks and hard entries.
Marco has been playing in Cosenza for three years where he is fundamental for the results of the youth teams and is regularly added to the first team. Hence, it is noticed by a broadcaster of the Red Bull Salzburg, the Austrian team with which Marco trains for a week, less than a month ago. Even in Austria, among many champions, Marco's class and talent are immediately noticed, thanks to real hits from a phenomenon. The excellent report of the observers of Red Bull Salzburg even reaches the observers of Bayern Munich with whom he is currently training, putting all of himself to achieve his goal.
Come on Marco!
It seems absurd, but Marco, who started from a red concrete pitch in the heart of Conflenti is right now on the Bayern Munich training ground, THE BAYERN MONACO. Yet, Marco knows well that he has not reached his goal but at a fundamental stage to reach it, because Marco Stranges is not yet a footballer, but his dream continues.
Good luck Marco, all Conflenti, and Calabria are cheering for you!
