Dear football,
Today, I want to share with you that this season will be my last as a professional footballer. After so many years living my dream, I feel it’s time to start a new chapter in my life.
Being honest, even though I have been preparing myself for this moment, I found it hard to write this letter. After 20 seasons , many people have played an important role in my career.
When I first kicked a ball as a child in Pamplona with my schoolmates, I never imagined the amazing journey ahead. I’m grateful for every moment: the wins, the tough losses, the challenges, and most of all, the people I’ve met and the friendships I’ve made along the way.
To my teammates, coaches, and every staff member at all the clubs I’ve been lucky to be part of, thank you for helping me grow as a person and a player every day. Wearing the shirts of CA Osasuna, Olympique Marseille, Chelsea FC, Atlético de Madrid, Sevilla FC, and representing my country at the biggest stages has been a true privilege. Every moment has meant so much to me…
THIS IS CRAZYY!!!!🤯
A guy just built a $1.8 billion company with two employees. Him and his brother. Using AI.
Matthew Gallagher started Medvi from his house in Los Angeles. Spent $20,000 and two months. AI wrote the code. AI made the website. AI made the ads. AI handled customer service.
First month. 300 customers. Second month. 1,000 more. First full year. $401 million in sales. This year on track for $1.8 billion.
His only hire? His younger brother. That's the entire company.
The New York Times verified the numbers. $65 million profit last year. More than $3 million coming in every single day.
Now compare this. Hims & Hers sells weight loss drugs online. 2,442 employees. $2.4 billion revenue. 5.5% profit margin. This guy is doing nearly the same with two people and triple the margins.
He grew up living in motels and cars. Taught himself to code on a laptop his uncle gave him. Sold samurai swords on eBay as a teenager. Didn't finish college. Moved to LA to become an actor.
Now he's running the fastest growing company nobody has heard of.
When his website broke during a hike he had to sprint home because there was nobody else to fix it. Lost 200 customers in one hour. That's the reality of a two person company doing $1.8 billion.
A VC told him don't raise money. He listened. Zero outside funding. He owns 100% of it.
Two brothers. $20,000. A laptop. And every AI tool they could get their hands on. That's all it took.
