Explore several fascinating new titles coming out soon.
Scout and tactical guru Lee Scott is about to release his fourth book, with his previous work focusing on dissecting the tactical finer points of Guardiola, Klopp and Bielsa. The book, set for release in May, delves into one of the most exciting chapters in soccer history - the rapid rise of Red Bull in Austria, Germany, the United States and Brazil. Red Bull's influence extends far beyond marketing, and its model of the game is deeply ingrained. The book focuses on how the Red Bull family, under the leadership of Rangnick, innovated tactics and developed a unique "Red Bull Way".
History enthusiast JoAraf's latest book, following on from Dream Team, once again blends soccer and history. The book recalls the creation of the Mitropa Cup in 1927, originally involving clubs from Austria, Hungary, Czechoslovakia and Yugoslavia (later Italy), the tournament was interrupted by World War II and resumed after the war until 1992.
Porter, Hopcutt and the East London table - Östersundz's extraordinary European journey.
The Conqueror - How Carlo Ancelotti led his team to the World Championships These two books tell the story of the team from a unique perspective rather than a conventional chronicle. One is the fantastic journey of Swedish side Östersunds from the fourth division to the Europa League, the other the saga of Chelsea coach Porter's reign, and the story of Carlo Ancelotti's first spell in charge of Milan at the beginning of the 21st century.
Recently, there have been endless discussions about the Chinese people's passion for soccer. I would like to ask: Isn't Tianjin Quanjian's experience from the First Division to the AFC Championship and then dissolution worthy of a monograph? Isn't Jiangsu's 20-plus year saga, from AFC Champions League to league champions to going up in smoke, worth documenting? Can our soccer market accommodate these stories? Perhaps today we have not yet found the right recorders and tellers.
