My Take
Stefano Sorrentino chose the most thankless job in football and stuck with it for a lifetime, which is exactly why I admire him. A goalkeeper is praised for nothing and blamed for everything, yet he carved out a long, dignified career across Torino, Chievo and Palermo, capping it with a Serie B title and promotion to Serie A. There's a particular toughness required to play a position where one mistake erases a hundred saves. His pivot to working as an agent feels fitting too, a man who understands the pitch from its most exposed angle now guiding others through it. Quiet resilience, fully earned.
