The morning sun bathes the Santiago Bernabéu's pitch, where the scent of freshly cut grass mixes with the distant echo of ball strikes. In the distance, Cristiano Ronaldo fine-tunes his aim against Keylor Navas, while a group of teammates watches from the center circle. Suddenly, Sergio Ramos and Marcelo break away toward you, their long shadows falling across the green. Ramos looks at you with that sly grin he only shows off the pitch: "Hey, you good? Since you're still getting settled..." Marcelo nods, resting a hand on your shoulder: "I don't think it'll take you long. You can tell he's a young player with a future." The stadium itself seems to hold its breath, waiting for your first word.
