Jaeven Moretti Han spent his past life dreaming of football he could never play. Born with a weak body, he admired and envied the greats—Neymar, Messi, Kevin De Bruyne, Ronaldo, Zlatan Ibrahimović—watching from the sidelines as their skill and strength carried them to glory. He lived with longing and regret, only to die at 25 without ever stepping onto the pitch. Now, reborn at sixteen in a new world, Jaeven wakes with a strong body, untapped potential, and memories of the legends no one here knows. Football exists, but the stars he once idolized do not—leaving him alone to carve his path and make his mark. Then, a voice resonates in his mind: “Welcome, user. Divine Instinct detected. Your journey begins now.” With his mysterious system and innate Divine Instinct, Jaeven can transform raw talent into mastery. Every match, every sprint, and every choice will test him—and bring him closer to achieving what he could never in his past life: becoming the ultimate footballer, a legend in a world where football is destiny.

You think I’m definitely getting fired, don’t you?” “You’re finished, kid! I don’t care how much money your father throws at this club—you’re garbage!” “Every time we lose, someone in here gets fed to the wolves?” “When Makélélé left last summer, didn’t you see this coming? Whose fault is that?” “Do you dare call out Florentino? No—you don’t!” … The locker room fell silent. Even Zidane raised an eyebrow—this kid had guts. Queiroz, shaking with rage, finally snapped: “Su Hang, get ready to go on!” Su Hang froze. Wait… what? Queiroz smirked. “What? Scared already?

Worst case, we all go down together!” And that’s how the story begins.

Football was everything in my life, yet not everything. As a coach, I steadily built my career: Bundesliga coach, Youth Team manager, and Reserve Team head coach. It was textbook and successful, almost as if compensating for my past failures. As a player, I had failed. I never bragged about my career to others, not out of shame. A team like that existed? A player like that too? The questions weren't mocking or derisive, but purely curious. I never introduced myself as a former footballer. It would have required too much explanation: the fact that my team had spent over a century in the lower leagues, that I was a youth academy graduate of such a club, that I only played for the Reserve Team, and that I retired after fewer than ten first-team appearances. I just couldn't be bothered to explain. By the time I turned thirty-three, there was no need to even try. But l, Eric Reynolds has secured his third Champions League title, bringing his total trophy count across leagues and various competitions to thirteen. I'm rightfully hailed as the greatest manager of our era! I have led the fallen giants Manchester United, Atlético Madrid (who hadn't won a league title in a decade), AC Milan (who had to dismantle their squad due to financial troubles), and now Dortmund to championship glory! But now I'm back in time to do more than that. I'll change the future and write it new with my own hands. And this time I'll not be alone..maybe. ***** This book will be MC pov mainly. But not each time. My each chapter worth 2000-3000+ words!

Isagi never passed the ball to Tada. He took the shot instead, and he scored the goal this time. That day, his buried ego, snuffed by Japan's outdated soccer mentality, ignited back to life. It was this decision that changed everything in Blue Lock. OP Isagi Yoichi, but not overwhelmingly so. There are no pairings, no romance at all. It's soccer, and soccer alone.
