Rio Lance is a Ferrari engine with square wheels.
    He can run the 100 meters in 10.8 seconds, but he possesses the ball control of a traffic cone.
    In the ruthless world of Spanish football, he’s a “kick-and-run” merchant destined for the Sunday leagues.
    But fate has a different transfer deadline day in mind.
    With Girona FC bleeding out in the La Liga relegation zone and an injury crisis wiping out the first team, the manager needs a miracle. He needs a winger. Tomorrow.
    Rio knows he’s doomed to fail the trial. He’s fast, but he can’t shoot, pass, or dribble to save his life.
    That is, until his phone glitches out and installs a mysterious app.
    [Connection Established...]
    [The Football Legends Chat Group!]
    King_10: “A new rookie? He looks clumsy.”
    Hand_Of_King: “Clumsy? I like his attitude.”
    Total_Football_14: “Stop bickering. We have one night to turn this sprinter into a footballer.”
    Rio isn't hallucinating. He’s just been added to a group chat with the digital echoes of Pelé, Maradona, and Cruyff!
    They are bored. They are critical. And they are willing to share their GOAT-tier abilities but only if Rio can survive the pressure.
    With Maradona’s [La Gambeta] feint loaded into his muscle memory and Cruyff’s [Clockwork Eye] guiding his vision, the fastest kid in Spain is about to stop running away from the ball and start running the game.
    The first mission is simple.
    Save Girona from relegation, or get banned from the Chat Group forever.
