Description

In 1994, long before he shook up the world with Barcelona, Brazil, Inter Milan and Real Madrid, Ronaldo was just a 17-year-old kid who swapped Rio for Eindhoven to play for PSV. We travelled to the south of Holland to talk to fans, journalists, former teammates, and the coaches who scouted him to bring you the origin story of the greatest striker of his era. GIANT is a  Spotify Original podcast in association with Mundial Magazine.

GIANT is a weekly podcast bringing you football stories that matter, told by the people who were there. It’s as much about people as it is penalties, life as it is legends, and emotion as it is extra-time. This is an audio documentary series that takes you deep into the stories you might know, you think you know, or you definitely should know. 'Imagine This American Life, if all the stories somehow related to football.' - The Guardian. Season One of GIANT is a multi-award winning Spotify Original hosted by Owen Blackhurst. Season Two is now available: episodes are released every Thursday, only on Spotify.
