More about the book

The narrative centers on the Football Dreams program, an ambitious initiative that conducts tryouts for millions of 13-year-old boys across Africa in search of soccer talent. Spearheaded by a Spanish scout instrumental in Lionel Messi's rise, and backed by Qatar, the program selects a few exceptional boys annually for professional training, making the selection process extraordinarily competitive—far more so than elite educational institutions like Harvard. This highlights the intense aspirations and challenges faced by young athletes in pursuit of their dreams.
