The retired pro footballer has set up his base on Malta and every year he takes ten promising young footballers under his wing. With a sharp eye, not just for talent, but for work ethic and mental agility, Denis grooms his protégés for their shot at glory in a European club through his Talent Eleven Academy.

He is also on a mission to help kids living in Brazils notorious Favelas break free of their challenging backgrounds. Denis has written a successful book on Leonardo Da Vinci (Rebus Da Vinci) in his native Italian, and the English version of this book is being published next month. All proceeds of the sale of the book will go to Denis’ Favela charity.
