He studied in America, he was the first choice in the MLS draft, he saw Pirlo and Lampard up close, he was one of the symbols of Loco’s Leeds. And now he arrives from Vanoli to give life to Fiorentina too
Jack Harrison really doesn’t want to go to study in America. Basically for two reasons. First: because in Manchester United he sees a dream come true. Second: because the unconsciousness of the fourteen year old kisses him on the forehead. And when you’ve barely checked into that tangle they call adolescence, you can only see us within an inch of your nose. But since mother Debbie is tenacious, she takes the little boy and gives him a tour of the United nursery yearbooks. He opens the albums and shows Jack the photos of the young Devils: “Do you recognize him?”. Negative. “But how? And what about him?”. Neither. After ten failed attempts, Jack understands the lesson: very few people live on football and blessings from the nursery alone. And it’s better to build a plan for the future first. That’s when Jack Harrison becomes a professional player. From New York to Leeds, rise, decline and the desire to return to altitude. He has now set a new stop on his navigator: Florence. And there is a specific reason.
