The Secret Footballer is 'recklessly honest' (Loaded); 'insightful & opinionated' (Morning Star); 'the Banksy of the beautiful game' (Shortlist). Since his first book was published in 2012, The Secret Footballer has been able to take the reader behind the scenes of footballers' lives like no other player has been able, or will ever be able, to do. Anonymity has been a potent weapon in revealing the real world of football stars, & five years on, he has now penned the work that all his fellow professionals have been urging him to do from the start, The Secret Footballer: What Goes on Tour. & it isn't going to stay on tour any more... From Marbella & Ibiza to Dubai & Las Vegas, The Secret Footballer lays bare the worst, most embarrassing & most hilarious excesses of these fit & mostly fickle young men whose million-pound salaries, to use his own words, 'open up a host of recreational opportunities'. Fuelled by rampaging desires for sex, drugs, booze & rock'n'roll, these footballers think up ever more extreme ways of splashing the cash, & needless to say, it doesn't always end well... ...
