In addition to his soccer skills, Brighton wing Kaoru Mitaka has also made a name for himself in literature. According to Japanese media reports, the 25-year-old soccer genius's new book Realizing Your Dreams with Backward Thinking will meet readers on June 22, with a first printing of 50,000 copies. In the book, Kaoru not only records his own career as a player, but also teaches 120 unique handicapping techniques.
The book details Kaoru Mitaka's transition from college to professional soccer and his strategies for dealing with challenges. The book includes some of the best moments from last year's World Cup group stage match between Japan and Spain, such as the story of his "hair-trigger" pass from the baseline that helped his team win, as well as his brilliant achievement of scoring seven goals in the English Premier League this season.
In the book, Kaoru Mitaka not only shares his experience of playing soccer, but also lists 120 disc golf exercises that he still uses today, and discusses key factors such as physical training and diet.
