**********************************************************************************

After the frustrating match against Hoffenheim, Daniel went to bed, his mind swirling with the events of the day. As he drifted into sleep, his thoughts wandered back to his time at Liverpool and a person he had been avoiding in this lifetime: Sarah.(just imagine her face like jordyn huitema,since she looks bright,except black hair)

In the Dream

Daniel found himself back at Melwood, the training ground of Liverpool FC. The surroundings were familiar, yet they felt distant, like a memory from another life. He walked through the corridors, hearing the faint echoes of laughter and conversations from his youth.

Voice: "Daniel!"

He turned and saw Sarah, the love of his life from his previous tenure at Liverpool. She was part of the Liverpool U18 women's team. Her smile was warm, her eyes filled with the same kindness and determination he remembered.

Sarah: "I always believed in you, Daniel."

She stepped closer, her presence comforting yet painful, a reminder of what he had chosen to avoid in this lifetime.

Daniel: "Sarah... why now?"

She reached out, but before he could take her hand, the scene began to fade. Her smile lingered as everything else dissolved into darkness.

Waking Up

Daniel jolted awake, his heart pounding. He sat up in bed, the remnants of the dream still vivid in his mind.

Daniel: "Why... why now?"

He rubbed his eyes, trying to shake off the feeling of longing and confusion. He had purposely avoided Sarah in this lifetime, fearing that getting close to her again would ruin both lives. But now, with everything happening at Dortmund and the immense pressure he was under, his subconscious had brought her back into his thoughts.

He got out of bed and paced the room, trying to make sense of it all. The dream had felt so real, her voice so clear.

Daniel (thinking): "Is it a sign? Or just my mind playing tricks on me?"

He sighed and sat back down on the edge of his bed. The memories of Sarah and their time together at Liverpool came flooding back. She had always believed in him, supported him through thick and thin. Even though he had avoided her this time around, the bond they had shared was undeniable.

Daniel (thinking): "I need to focus. I can't let this distract me now."

But even as he tried to convince himself, the lingering warmth of Sarah's smile and her words of encouragement stayed with him. He knew he couldn't ignore the emotions stirring within him.

Daniel: "I'll figure it out... one step at a time."

He lay back down, staring at the ceiling, hoping that sleep would come again, but knowing that his thoughts were now more complicated than ever.

He picked up his phone and called Jorge Mendes, his trusted agent and advisor.

Jorge: "Daniel, how are you?"

Daniel: "I've been better, Jorge. There's a lot going on right now. I need your advice."

Jorge: "I'm here for you. What's on your mind?"

Daniel took a deep breath and recounted the recent events, from the game against Hoffenheim to the rumors about his eligibility for the American national team. He even mentioned how it was affecting his focus.

Jorge: "That's a lot to deal with, Daniel. But first things first, let's address the national team situation. My advice is to call up the England FA and make it clear that you want to be considered for the England team. Make your declaration official."

Daniel: "But what if I don't get called up? What if they don't see my potential?"

Jorge: "Don't worry about that. Your job is to make your intentions clear. Whether they call you up or not, you need to stay focused on your game. Prove your worth through your performances. The call-up will come when the time is right. Just don't let it get to you if it doesn't happen immediately."

Daniel: "You're right, Jorge. I'll call them today."

Jorge: "Good. Remember, this is the world of professional football. There will always be ups and downs, and you need to stay strong. Focus on what you can control – your training, your matches, and your mindset."

Daniel: "Thanks, Jorge. I appreciate your support."

Jorge: "Anytime, Daniel. Keep your head up, and stay focused on your goals."

Jorge: "I will settle this for you, Daniel"

After the call, Daniel felt a bit more at ease. He knew what he had to do next. He dialed the number for the England FA and waited as the phone rang.

FA Representative: "Hello, England Football Association. How can I help you?"

Daniel: "Hi, this is Daniel Arrazi. I want to make an official declaration of my intention to represent England."

There was a brief pause on the other end of the line.

FA Representative: "Thank you, Daniel. We'll make a note of your declaration. This will be passed on to the relevant department. Please understand that the selection process is competitive, but your intention is duly noted."

Daniel: "I understand. Thank you."

As he hung up the phone, Daniel felt a sense of relief. He had taken a significant step towards his future. Now, it was time to focus on his game and let his performances speak for themselves.

The football world was buzzing with the latest news: Daniel Arrazi had officially declared his intention to play for the England national team. With Jorge Mendes handling the matter with the England FA, the announcement was made with precision and clarity.
