Hijos del fútbol

Children of football is the story of an overflowing passion, that of a father who is a fan who fears that he is infecting his children with the incurable virus that his grandfather transmitted to him, and a reflection on the globalization of football, its values and its shadows. Written as a diary, his pages recount the vibrant and emotional story of an individual assailed by existential doubts when he discovers that the world of his eldest son is increasingly conditioned by a ball and colors. The reader, meanwhile, remembers his childhood dreams of impossible goals, the games in the schoolyard alternate with visions of the stadium as an adult, and the names of soccer players are mixed with those of writers who have contributed to fueling the passion.
