Pepe x Umbro | An Eternal Bond : Football Boots : Soccer Bible

If you watch just one video today make it this one. The story behind Pepe's rise as a footballer and his love for Umbro is nothing other than unique as we know after talking to him for SoccerBible Mag Issue 3. Umbro brought Pepe and his father Anael together to mark the release of the Speciali Eternal and to hear their incredible story.

In a world of media training and scripted answers, footballers often find it impossible to express emotion, so the passion with which Pepe speaks is quite remarkable. Rather than shy away from their struggles, Pepe and his father give a candid account of early life in Brazil and the sacrifices the family had to make in order for Pepe to follow his dream. No scripts. No soundbites. Just the story of how one boy from Brazil became one of the most decorated defenders in the football.



After speaking to Pepe for SoccerBible Magazine Issue 3 we sensed the genuine admiration and emotional attachment that he has for Umbro and that bond with his family is further demonstrated in Umbro's video. Both Umbro and Pepe are unique in every sense of the word and he deserves every inch of success he achieves in the game.
