God Of football

The Fans at the airport still followed the players to where they were supposed to take their bus.

Some of the girls couldn't help but talk about Izan. Honestly speaking,the girls couldn't resist staring at him which was a very impolite thing to do in Japan.

Izan however didn't mind as being a public figure would mean people would always have their eyes on you.

The female fans at the stadium kept giggling and whispering in each others ears while looking at Izan.

The players were finally led to the bus they would be taking to the hotel they would be staying in.

The Valencia Team would be playing 4 matches in total. 2 against japanese teams, Kawasaki Frontale and Yokohama F Marinos and the other 2 matches would be against Tottenham hotspur who were also having their pre-season in Japan and Dortmund who were also in Japan for their pre-season.

The players after a few pictures and autographs with the fans entered their bus and were soon on their way.

"It seems they don't know you yet wonderboy" said Pietro. This was because none of the fans asked Izan for a picture or an autograph apart from the small boy.

The other players laughed at this and Izan couldn't help but think how childish these grown-ups could be.

Izan looking at pietro said "They will soon " before looking away. Jose Gaya who was behind Izan couldn't help but smile at his self-belief.

"Wish I was like that when I was young" thought Gaya as he looked at Izan.

The players arrived at the hotel they would be staying in for the next 2 to 3 weeks and to be honest,it had exceeded their expectations.

The hotel had a nice and peaceful atmosphere and this was a very good thing for players who would be exhausted after training sessions.

The players waited in the lobby while the Team's manager in charge of travelling and accommodation finished with some procedures.

Coach Baraja approached the team and told them to have a good night's rest as they would be training the following morning.

The players where given cards which had the names of who they would be staying with to them and Izan found out he would be staying with Pietro.

Izan, a bit annoyed looked at Pietro who was grinning at him. "What is wrong with my luck" Izan thought.

Pietro as if reading Izan's thoughts said "Its not your luck, I asked if we could be put together in the same room and they said it was possible".

Pietro watched on as Izan walked to the manager in charge of accommodation.

"Could I have a different roommate " Izan said with a blank expression.

Pietro quickly grabbed Izan before smiling wryly at the manager who looked confused as to what was going on between the two.

"Why would you change your roomie Izan,don't be such a child" Pietro said.

"Well I am a child" Izan shot back.

Pietro couldn't help but curse inwardly as Izan always seemed to have the last say.

The other players couldn't help but laugh at the banter between the two.

Coach Moreno and Coach Baraja both stood there shaking their heads.

"Hold on" Izan said to Pietro who was still talking.

Izan pulled his phone out of his pocket and smiled at the caller id.

"Hello ma" Izan said as he kept talking with his mom on the phone. Komi and Hori had arrived a few hours before Izan and his team had arrived.

Komi asked how Izan was doing and the two talked for a few minutes before deciding to end it.

"Say hello to grandma and grandpa for me" Izan said.

After Izan ended the call,pietro came towards him. Izan who knew what he was going to do quickly left for the room with his key card.

Pietro also took his bag and ran after Izan. The other players just stood there laughing at the scene that had just happened infront of them.

"Those 2 seemed to have brought a new side to this team" Coach Moreno said as he looked at the retrieving backs of Izan and Pietro.

The rest of the players and staff headed towards their rooms for some rest before they took their brunch.

After brunch,a few of the players decided to go outside and tour for a while but Izan decided to to stay at the hotel.

Surprisingly,pietro too stayed at the hotel and the duo just played games on the console that pietro brought.

The players that had gone out didn't return until dinner and Coach Baraja scolded them a bit for staying out late than the agreed time.

Pietro stood laughing at the other players and Izan just stood there shaking his head. The other players made a mental note to teach him a lesson after this and they did.

The players who knew Pietro liked to watch horror movies but at the same time was scared of ghosts and stuff like that decided to prank him.

And Izan was in on the fun. Izan pretended to go out while Pietro was watching one of such movies after dinner.

The players had fully commited to the prank and had gone all out,even buying materials needed for the prank leaving Pietro in oblivion.

The players now fully dressed as clown,ghosts and werewolves stood behind pietro who was watching the movie with the lights turned off.

Izan decided this would make a good video for his posts on his socials and decided to film it.

Izan had intentionally left the door agape as it was also a part of the prank.

Izan stood with his phone recording the prank.

One of the players then went to shut the door. "I thought you said you had something to buy" Pietro said whiles turning his head.

Unfortunately for him,the scene behind him made Pietro feel like peeing himself as what he saw behind him gave him a scare.

Pietro jumped back whiles screaming in attempt to run away from what was behind him but instead fell down.

The players couldn't help but laugh as they took of the clothes and the costumes.

Izan who had fully captured this on camera couldn't help but laugh at his teammate.

Pietro after realising it was his teammates lay on the floor trying to regain his soul which seemed to have jumped out of his body.

Izan quickly took a few pictures of him before posting them on his Social accounts.

He also sent the video and pictures to the team group which pietro himself had created.

The players left,happy with the payback and Izan also went outside with them. He didn't want to face pietro just yet.

While going out,Izan got a call from Olivia. It had been a few days since Izan informed her about the tour and they hadn't talked since.

Izan went on the balcony while talking to Olivia. Olivia who wanted to see Izan had called him on video.

As the two talked,Izan showed her the scenery and she was simply amazed by the view from the balcony.

"We should both come here sometime" Izan said as he looked at Olivia's reaction.

Olivia who heard this couldn't help but smile at Izan. "Yeah we should" she said with a smile that made Izan heart beat a bit faster.

"Soon" Izan thought as he continued with the conversation. They finally ended the call after 2 hours and Izan decided to go to sleep now.

[The next day]

Izan woke up early the next day and putting on his Adidas track suit, Izan headed out to complete his daily task.

Izan after running for a while decided to head back to the hotel as he was a bit unfamiliar with that place.

As he was heading back, he saw a few kids his age or older on a turf nearby and decided to have his own training before the team one.

The team training would start at 10 at the earliest and it was currently 6:48 Am

"Can I join you guys " Izan said in japanese as he approachedthe other guys.

The other kids who saw him just looked at him especially his eye before one spoke.

"Sure but you gotta at least have some skill" he said tossing the ball to Izan. Izan who saw the ball coming his way controlled it well.

"Nice" the other kid said after seeing Izan trap the ball.

"Well guys its settled then" he said to the other guys. Izan joined the team of the boy who had tossed the ball to him as it was the one with a position left.

"Do you play or .." the boy asked Izan to which he replied yeah. "My name's Shuu by the way" he said bringing forth his hand for a shake.

"Miura " Izan said whiles taking Shuu's hand in his.

"Do you also play" Izan asked. The other kids couldn't help but look at Izan with weird stares.

"Yes I do" he said before smiling at Izan

"You're not from around here,are you" one of the kids said as he approached Izan.

"Nope,just arrived in Japan yesterday " Izan said. The other kids looked at him finally understanding the reason behind his eye colour.

"Well he's an under 18s player who just got promoted to the senior team of Yokohama F Marinos" the kid continued.

"Yeah and he's kind of famous since he's just 17" another added

"Huh" Izan said looking at Shuu who was now with some of the other kids.

"The players around him are also academy players at Yokohama F Marinos and the ones we are playing against today are also academy players at Yokohama Fc" said the player called Saki.

"Oh and that guy is also kind of Shuu's rival" a kid said pointing to a brown haired youth.

"He's Shinji and he was also recently promoted to the senior team of Yokohama Fc. He's the same age as Shuu as he's also turning 18 this year" the kid said.

Izan as if anticipating this had brought a bag with him that had a few things inside.

Taking out his Nike phantom boots,the other kids couldn't help but look at the boots.

"Nice boots " Shuu said. "Thanks Izan replied. After he finished dressing, shuu asked Izan which position he would like to play and Izan said if midfield or wing position were available he'd play there.

Fortunately for him,the team needed someone on the right wing as all the other kids on the side said they couldn't playe there.

Izan walked over to the right wing and now that the other players looked at him, his height was kind of good.

The passer-bys who saw the kids asked the other kids on the side about the match and after they learnt about the match,they decided to stay and watch a bit.

Some people also decided to stay as they recognised Shuu and Shinji. One kid aside the two stood out in particular because of his handsome face and eyes.

"Must be a foreigner,although he kind of looks japanese or Asian at the very least" a man said in japanese.

Mid A/n********

[Okay guys I gotta address this. I'm not being racist by all those "he looks Asian " comments okay so you have to understand me right. Thanks for understanding and shout out to all the Asian readers. Now let's continue.

****************************

"Maybe a japanese living abroad" a female voice added.

After the players got into position,the teen acting as the referee blew the whistle .

The opponent team kicked of first and Izan's team had to chase the ball. The team was playing well and Izan had to say,they were well coordinated and they didn't make any unnecessary movements.

Izan's team chased the ball as the opponents tried to breakthrough. Shinji,got the ball and started moving forward.

He looked around trying to find space and he found one as he saw one of his teammates making a run.

With a one-two pass with another player,he got around 2 of the Marinos players and sent the ball towards his teammates.

The player, Shin who got the ball quickly moved forward as that pass had broken through the defense of the Marinos team.

He got to the ball before kicking it ahead around the approaching opponent player.

He ran and caught up to the ball before kicking it around the keeper who had come out to face him.

The ball entered the net drawing applause from the now growing crowd.

Izan stood there with a smile on his face

"Not bad" he said ruffling his hair.
