The publisher's representative Victor Raquel said "The world is full of old celebrities in sports, fashion, film, and music, who are ruined today and are desperately struggling for survival. The public is moved by these cases and wishes to know the reasons for their rise and fall. They also want to know if there is any way the lives of these old celebrities can be turned around."

The book tells the story of a poor boy who one day, thanks to football, becomes a multimillionaire hero of the masses.
