On a pleasant summer evening in 1998, the hottest player in world football, Luis Figo, stepped onto the balcony of the Gothic Catalan Palace (the residence of the President of Catalonia). Dressed in his club suit with his hair dyed blue and red, he seized the microphone in front of a crowd of fervent fans celebrating Barcelona's latest league title, singing loudly: "White shirts cry, the new king ascends!" "Real Madrid weeps, champions cheer!" Two years later, he was at Barcelona's Camp Nou, wearing that very white jersey. He was the first superstar to join Real Madrid's "Galacticos"; he was the highest-valued and highest-paid footballer in the world; he was the most hated man in Catalonia.
Luis Figo broke transfer records, divided a country, and shaped modern football; "The Story of Figo: The Century-Defining Transfer that Changed Football" takes viewers on a deep dive into Figo, telling an engaging story: how his transfer was realized, the twists and turns of the behind-the-scenes deal-making, the historic sporting rivalry, profound cultural divides, and the pig's head incident.
