About

Ash was a young girl from India who changed the way people looked at football. She started playing for Sunderland when she was young and became the only girl in an otherwise all-men's team. People doubted her, but Ash never let that stop her. She was an incredible midfielder—smart, confident, hardworking, and unbelievably talented. She didn't just play football; she seemed to understand the game differently. Slowly, she became one of the most admired young players around. Before all the fame, Ash had met Kenan Yıldız, who was also young at the time and developing through Bayern Munich's youth system. They were close, understood each other's football lives, and eventually fell in love. They started dating while Ash was still at Sunderland, and everyone thought they were one of the sweetest couples. Kenan absolutely adored her, and Ash loved him just as much. But when Ash had to move back to India for her studies, the distance, their careers, and everything happening around them became too difficult. Eventually, they broke up. Everyone knew how much they had loved each other, so even after the breakup, people never really stopped shipping them. Later, José Mourinho brought Ash to Real Madrid in this fictional story. She walked into another all-men's team, but this time she wasn't the girl people underestimated anymore. She was already an extraordinary player. She became incredibly close with Jude Bellingham, and when Jobe Bellingham joined, she became close with him too. Ash was one of those people everyone naturally loved—sweet, funny, humble, and somehow able to make even the most serious teammates smile. Arda Güler also became very close to her and developed genuine feelings for her, although he knew Ash's heart was complicated. He could see that there was something about Kenan she hadn't completely understood herself. And then Ash did the impossible. At only eighteen, she helped Real Madrid win the UEFA Champions League, including an unbelievable performance where she scored five goals in nine minutes. The world was shocked. The girl from India who had once been the only girl at Sunderland was now a Champions League winner at Real Madrid. Ash thought she had moved on from Kenan. She could honestly believe that she had. She had a new team, new friends, a new life, and people like Jude, Jobe, and Arda around her. But deep down, even Ash wasn't completely sure. Sometimes a memory of Kenan would return unexpectedly, and she would wonder whether she'd really moved on or simply learned how to live without him. Kenan, meanwhile, was at Juventus. And he definitely hadn't moved on. He constantly saw fan edits of Ash with Jude, Jobe, Arda, and other Real Madrid players. He watched her interviews, her match clips, her pictures, and sometimes replayed the same edits more than once. He still remembered her long hair because he had always loved it, and now she had cut it. He didn't particularly like the shorter hair—but somehow, he still thought she looked even more beautiful than he had imagined. He hated how easily one photo of her could bring back everything. His Juventus teammates started noticing too. Whenever Ash appeared on a screen, Kenan became quieter. He tried to act like it didn't affect him, but they could tell. He had become a great player himself, yet when it came to Ash, he was still the same boy who had fallen for her years ago. And then came the match: Real Madrid vs Juventus. Ash was standing on one side. Kenan on the other. For everyone else, it was a huge football match. For them, it was the first time they had to face the past they had both been trying to leave behind.
