Lucas watched the young man with the flame-red hair. "Raphael, you know him, don't you?" Lucas asked, because the look Raphael gave the boy wasn't as if he was surprised that the boy with feminine features was actually a boy.
"Ah... yes. I mean, sort of. He's... that's Aidan. He was based in Watford. Very agile. Even famous in youth circles. I've seen him play in a few leagues, and well... you can imagine why everyone talks about him."
"Is he a striker?"
"Actually, oddly enough, he's a left-back. He's skilled, like a few others. His style of play reminds me a bit of Marcelo from Real Madrid."
The player Raphael was referring to was Marcelo Vieira da Silva Junior, a left-back who made his career in Europe playing for Real Madrid, who won three Champions Leagues in a row. Lucas knew this because he stopped following soccer a few years later, when he went to college.
"In other words, he's more of an attacking left-back than a defensive one." Lucas concluded.
