Alexandre Pato

Alexandre Pato is one of those names that still carries a pang of what-might-have-been for me. The kid from Pato Branco exploded at Milan with electric pace and finishing, and for a moment he looked destined for the very top. Injuries, more than any lack of talent, blunted that arc, and I think that is the genuinely poignant part of his story. Even so, glimpsing the summit of world football before turning twenty is something almost no one manages. I remember his peak fondly, and I tend to judge him by the brilliance he showed rather than the ceiling he never quite reached.
