OP‑ED: MILANISTA DO BRASIL
Community
Hello, my name is João Victor Santos Santana and I’m 19. AC Milan has been a burning passion of mine for as long as I can remember, I grew during one of our most glorious periods. Kaká and Ronaldo have always been my greatest idols and I got to watch them play in my team's jersey. I was born in Brazil, I come from a humble family, and always thought it would be impossible to see my team and our triumphs up-close. But luckily, I had the opportunity to train in Switzerland for three months and, in the first weeks, I went to Milan and my dream came true. It still feels unbelievable to have visited Milan and San Siro a year ago, it was an incredible moment. Black skin, red blood and red-and-black heart from the very beginning.
