Goal! The Manchester United Captains Chapter 48: The Night Before
"You still awake?"Ben's voice crackled through the team’s secure group chat like a late-night whisper in the dark.Leo blinked at the screen of his phone. He hadn't expected anyone else to be up. He typed back quickly:"Yeah. Couldn't sleep. You?""Same. Meet me in the hallway?"Leo hesitated for a second, then slid off the hotel bed. The floor was cold beneath his feet, but his nerves were hotter than ever. He threw on a hoodie and cracked his door open, peeking into the quiet corridor. Ben was already there, leaning against the wall, arms crossed, eyes haunted.“Walk with me?” Ben asked softly.They didn’t say much at first. Just walked like two shadows moving down a corridor that seemed too quiet for what tomorrow held. The Champions League final. The biggest night of their lives. But it wasn’t just about football anymore.“You’re not going to like what I found,” Ben finally said, his voice low.Leo stopped walking. “Don’t do that. Don’t lead with that. Just say it.”Ben pulled ou

“You think they’ll come for us?” Leo asked quietly, staring out over the training pitch. The floodlights cast long shadows, slicing across the grass like silent blades.Ben didn’t answer right away. He was standing beside him, arms crossed, his jaw set with that calm, calculating stillness Leo had come to rely on.“They already are,” Ben said finally. “Just not with fists or bullets. They’re watching. They’re waiting.”“Then we stay ahead,” Leo muttered. “We fight without them seeing us fight.”Ben gave a half-smile. “A silent war.”With the media in a full-blown frenzy leading up to the Champions League final, Leo and Ben began their investigation quiet, calculated, and dangerously close to the shadows that had almost swallowed the club. The recent public confession had given them an unexpected advantage. The cameras that followed Leo and Maya were meant to catch scandal, passion, drama. What they didn’t catch was the investigation happening right under their noses.Leo and Maya had

“Did you see that?”“I still can’t believe they actually said it out loud.”“That wasn’t just a confession… that was a declaration.”The world didn’t just react..it exploded.The moment Leo took Maya’s hand on live television, it was like lightning struck the heart of the football world. A secret love, once buried under rules, fear, and pressure, was now out in the open for everyone to see. Their fingers had barely touched before social media lit up like wildfire. The headlines came fast, loud, and relentless:“LOVE ON THE PITCH!”“THE CAPTAINS WHO BROKE THE RULES—AND WON HEARTS!”“MAYA & LEO: IS THIS THE LOVE THAT SAVED THE CLUB?”It was raw. It was real. It was risky.Inside the sleek glass building where the interview had been filmed, Isabella Knight paced the hallway like a general after battle. She’d planned it perfectly but even she hadn’t expected the storm to hit this hard, this fast.“We did it,” she whispered to herself. “Now let’s see what survives the fallout.”Back at the
Goal! The Manchester United Captains Chapter 45: A Public Confession
The studio lights burned bright. Not warm, not comforting, just hot, white, and sharp, like truth about to be exposed.The walls were sterile and silent, dressed in clean lines and corporate branding. It was a perfect space for control, for carefully crafted stories. But today, the story about to be told was not the one anyone expected.Leo sat beside Maya on the sleek grey couch, the two of them framed in front of the “Rebuild & Unite” backdrop. Their smiles were polite, rehearsed. Their bodies sat straight, controlled. But their fingers hidden between them brushed, briefly. A quiet promise passed between them in that small touch.Leo’s heartbeat was loud in his ears. Not from nerves about football, not about the final. No. It was about what he was about to say. Or not say.Across from them sat Amanda Byrne, one of the sharpest journalists in international sports media. Veteran, composed, piercing eyes that missed nothing. The kind of anchor who didn’t chase gossip, she forced truth
Goal! The Manchester United Captains Chapter 44: The Ultimatum and the Opportunity
The city pulsed like a living heartbeat in the days leading up to the Champions League final. Streets were painted red, billboards flashed Leo’s face, and Manchester United City was suddenly the center of the footballing universe. Everyone wanted a piece of the story; how the fallen club had risen again, how one young captain had led them out of darkness.And at the center of it all was Leo.But inside him, the noise was muffled by a storm no one could see.He was pulled in a hundred directions; photo ops, press questions, practice drills, nutrition plans, even rehearsals for trophy celebrations. Everyone wanted him to be everything. The symbol. The story. The certainty.Then came David.His agent had been pacing outside the training facility for an hour, eyes glued to his phone. When Leo finally emerged, towel slung over his shoulder, David swooped in with a folder tucked tightly under his arm.“Leo. Two minutes. Now,” he whispered, pulling him toward the back corridor, away from cam
Goal! The Manchester United Captains Chapter 43: A Conversation of Integrity
The city outside Leo’s apartment window buzzed with life, horns blaring, lights blinking like stars caught in traffic. But inside, everything was quiet. Too quiet.Leo sat alone at his kitchen counter, staring at the untouched glass of whisky in front of him. His heart should’ve been celebrating, he’d just won the semi-final, after all. The roar of the crowd, the last-minute free-kick, the glory… it should’ve been enough to drown out doubt.But it wasn’t.Instead, something cold had taken root inside him. Not guilt. Not even fear. Just a sickening uncertainty.What if the victory wasn’t real? What if the free-kick wasn’t won but handed to him?The idea had crept in like a shadow behind the cheers. It didn’t matter how hard he tried to ignore it, it kept whispering. What if it was rigged? What if you’re not the hero, but the puppet?A buzz broke the silence.Ben Carter.Leo let out a breath. Right on time.“Door’s open,” he called.Ben stepped in, shrugging off a grey hoodie and kickin
