Pour la première fois de sa vie Mario est amoureux jusqu’aux oreilles. De Leon, le petit nouveau venu d’Allemagne. Leon joue aussi en attaque et pourrait représenter un danger quand il s’agira de choisir celui qui montera en première équipe. Mais Mario ne veut pas y penser, il veut sentir, flairer Leon et être près de lui. Cela n’a pas échappé à d’autres membres de l’équipe et les rumeurs vont bon train. Mario voit bien que sa carrière de footballeur professionnel est en danger mais il ne veut perdre Leon à aucun prix. Il doit prendre une décision.
