Tim Vickery in South America

I have often mentioned the single greatest pleasure of covering South American football -spotting a future superstar on the way up, spying on the early steps of someone with the talent to become a household name all over the world.Another pleasure comes from following some of those big names at the end of their playing days, when they come back from Europe to wind down their careers.One of the fascinating aspects here is that they can fit into so many different categories.
