An insult, a chase, six months of jail, half an hour against Arsenal, a viral video in pre -social era, an offer refused without his knowledge, a plane for the Barbados, a second job: the story of an attacker with a unique career of his kind of his kind
There are trivial destinations, those of the players are more or less all like this: at a certain point you realize that you are no longer what you were, you look in the mirror and choose not to play anymore.

Louis, born in 1979, began playing in matches of which the report was held in 1996 and played the last last month, and in 28 seasons of honored career he changed 51 clubs. Fifty -one. There are those who said that they had the potential to make a great career, he made a great career: difficult to distil him in numbers because at certain levels the tables are told and do not hold, in any case there are over a thousand games and over 300 goals, without ever disclosing the third series and without ever leaving the country except for a single game. Jlo is a Ronin of football, samurai without master and with a large burden of self -sacrifice and prejudices: the self -denial is his, the prejudices of those of others because how do you trust one who changes the team with the frequency with which you change your jacket?
