[Soccer] Crown of the Green Field

When I first started writing this, I had no outline at all. I just wrote wherever my dreams took me, so I'm planning to start over and rewrite it from the outline onward. Serious blurb: After spending fourteen years as a free wind on the Apennine Peninsula, Max Franz returned to the banks of the Isar, only to be told to waste his days being "restrained and proper." When the final whistle blew at the World Cup final, he stood before the goal and embraced the sky, with tens of thousands of fans behind him cheering, "Kaiser Maximilian." He said, "The pitch is my kingdom." [You once said I was born to rule. But a true king needs no crown handed to him. What I want, I will take for myself.] Maximilian Luca Franz von Bayern at the Ballon d'Or ceremony. The silly forum version: Hot take: Is the Sun really going this far this time? OP: Have I forgotten how to read? The Sun says Franz is the heir to the Duchy of Bavaria? 1L: My first reaction was to check that this was the Sun and not Bild. How did such huge news get broken by a foreign outlet? 2L: Is this legit? Or are they making things up for clicks again? 3L: If it's true, are we once again selling out Bayern and going completely blind? 4L: LOL, selling out Bayern is their specialty. 5L: Do you believe Franz is a prince, or that I'm Emperor Otto? Send me 50 and I'll make you a duke after I restore the empire. 66L: The official statement is out: Prinz von Bayern. Wait, you guys are serious? Reader's guide: 1. I'm a casual football fan, and this is something I wrote for fun on a whim. If anything doesn't add up, it's my fault. 2. I have no outline (unless a hundred words counts as one). I make up the plot each day, so it may jump around. 3. I love writing forum posts. I really do. 4. There will be changes to award ownership and player transfers. A deep bow in advance, everyone. 5. Apologies in advance for OOC. 6. The pairing is Toni Kroos. 7. This is a free story. If you think something is poorly written, please click away. Everyone wins. 8. I haven't thought of anything else. I'll add it if I do. Theme: Pursuing freedom and finding oneself
