Fan Story | A brave bat from Leicester
Lucas fulfills his dream of watching Valencia CF at Mestalla
Lucas Bedford is a little Valencianista from Leicester (UK) who fell in love with Valencia CF when he was just 3 years old. On a trip with his family, he took the Mestalla Forever Tour and from that moment on he became a loyal fan of the team, being captivated by the bat on the badge.
Three years later, his family, in recognition of his tireless fight to overcome a rare eye disease, brought him back to Valencia on vacation and he was able to fulfill his dream of seeing a Valencia CF game in person at Mestalla. The day was a rollercoaster of emotions for Lucas, who was also able to meet some of his idols, especially his new favorite player, Javi Guerra
