Christmas is coming..
If you have any football fans in your life and they like books, I'm going to be biased and recommend The Ajax Way. It was Sports Book of the Week on Talksport and World Soccer featured it.

Here is Athletic Club legend Andoni Goikoetxea with my book ‘Los Leones: The Unique Story of Athletic Club Bilbao.’ Goiko kindly wrote a foreword for the book. There is a chapter dedicated to the great man! What a player! Get a copy here: pitchpublishing.co.uk/shop/l…#AthleticClub
The scientific basis of penalty taking in proper football (soccer). Great timing in releasing it in time for the Euro 2024 competition. If you think penalties are a lottery, this book is for you. It is fascinating and you will never watch penalties in the same way again. Penalty taking is a psychological rather than a physical test. @GeirJordet
“Va-Va-Voom”, a new book, argues that, for all the changes in French football, the game’s political significance has remained constant econ.st/4cmnwzL 👇

Been waiting for years for this book from @elcaceres It’s a labour of love and a work of art. Quite literally. Dozens of players (Pelé, Di Stefano, Charlton, Zico, Weah, Platini, Beckenbaur…) draw the goal that meant the most to them. A fascinating and beautiful thing.
