Kick-ups is not really a skill that can be used during a football game, but just the ability to pull it off, shows the touch a person possesses. Professional footballers mostly do kick-ups during training sessions or when they are being unveiled at a new club -- showing off to the fans.
And while most manage to pull it off without any major hiccups, some get too overawed by the situation.
Stars like Paulinho (Barcelona), Martin Brathwaite (Barcelona), Mariano (Sevilla) among others have had nightmare unveilings.
When Paulinho moved to Barcelona, having cost over 35 million euros, it was expected he would possess the samba skills that most in Brazil are born with. However, his unveiling didn't go as planned and neither did his career at Camp Nou

Barcelona signing Leganes forward Martin Brathwaite raised more than a few eyebrows and after his tumultuous unveiling, those doubts only increased.
