Alfredo & Me is a tragicomedy of football, fame, and fragile identity, told through the eyes of a Hungarian striker lost in the shadow of Alfredo Di Stéfano at Real Madrid. William Telford writes with wit, bite, and affection, capturing the absurd collisions of ego and admiration, cultural displacement and the need to matter. This is a story shaped by comic excess, bittersweet rivalries, and the quiet despair of always being second best. Through diary entries rich with satire and pathos, Alfredo & Me unpicks what it means to worship and resent in the same breath. There are no fairytale victories here - only bruising laughter, small betrayals, and flashes of tenderness in the glow of borrowed greatness.
