It was about time for some sports drama! Netflix has just released “The Champion,” a Spanish film that delves into the dark side of football and how it affects its youngest stars.
The story revolves around Diego, a selfish and aggressive young player who has just been voted the best young player in Europe. At the age of 20, he is on his way to making his team, Atlético de Madrid, champions of La Liga. However, his bad temperament affects the club so much that a psychology professor is hired to improve his behavior, though it seems almost impossible.
