Hardly John Neeskens (Tulsa, Oklahoma, 1993) He won't forget this season. The footballer, son of Johann Neeskens, has had an exceptional year professionally, with his historic promotion to the First Division of the European Football Federation (RFEF) and his recent signing for FC Eindhoven in the Dutch Second Division. But on a personal level, he has suffered a shock that he is still struggling to assimilate: the sudden death of his father in October At 73, after feeling ill, he said: "It was one of the worst days of my life, if not the worst. I couldn't believe it, and there are still times when I think it's not possible; it was a terrible blow that I'm still carrying." He still gets goosebumps when he remembers how the Europa players and the fans chanted his name at the end of the first match the Gràcia team played at the Nou Sardenya after the tragic death. "The Europa fans are some of the best in Catalonia, and this is a moment that will forever be etched in my thoughts," he says, moved.
