Travel back to Milan in 1910… a city of smoke, noise, and hard work… where a young boy grows up kicking a ball made of rags on cobbled streets. After losing his father in World War One, Giuseppe helps his mum at a busy market… but his heart belongs to football. You’ll hear how he played barefoot, wrapped his feet in cloth, and refused to give up… even going on hunger strike just to follow his dream. From hidden shoes to his very first pair of football boots… from rejection by AC Milan to being discovered by Inter Milan… this is a story of resilience, courage, and pure love for the game. Perfect for kids aged 5–12 and families listening together, this episode is packed with adventure, emotion, and inspiration. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
