The Haunted King

Platini – Season 1

Platini was criticized in France for leaving to play in Turin, but was adored in Italy, where he is now nicknamed “The King.” There, he shone against Maradona, Zico, and Rummenigge, displaying a level of tactical intelligence unmatched anywhere in the world. But Juventus was obsessed with the European Champions Cup, which always eluded them. A once-in-a-lifetime opportunity arose in 1985, in the final in Brussels at Heysel Stadium.
