Editor's Note:
Martin Bengtssons pojkdröm gick i uppfyllelse då han endast 17 år gammal fick ett proffskontrakt med den italienska fotbollsklubben Inter. Nio månader senare vaknar han upp på ett sjukhus i Milano efter att ha försökt ta sitt liv. Vad hände egentligen och hur kunde allting bli så fel? Martin Bengtsson hade som så många andra ungdomar en dröm om att bli fotbollsproffs. När han var tio år gammal bestämde han sig. Han tränade tre timmar dagligen, försakade skola och vänner och till slut gick hans dröm i uppfyllelse. På två år tog han sig från en liten kvartersklubb IK Sturehov, via Örebro SK till spel i allsvenskan och slutligen ett proffskontrakt med Inter i Italien. Men bakom framgången finns en väg kantad av identitetskris, sexmissbruk, tränarbråk, möte med den stora kärleken, droger, ensamhet och tristess. Efter nio månader som proffsspelare i Italien får framgångshistorien ett dramatiskt slut då Martin försöker ta sitt liv genom att skära upp sina handleder i duschen. Han hamnar på Milanos psykiatriska sjukhusavdelning och skickas hem till Sverige. Om den här resan vill Martin berätta och för första gången får vi nu ta del av en helt vanlig svensk killes berättelse om livet i en av världens största fotbollsklubbar. Martin är kritisk till både den svenska och utländska fotbollsrörelsen, och menar att de unga talangerna drillas till fotbollsrobotar utan egna åsikter och känslor. Det är de feta kontrakten och klubbarnas prestige som styr medan ett genuint engagemang för ungdomarna och deras möjligheter att utvecklas till hela individer saknas.
