How dirty a business is football?

.

Soccer may be the most popular sport, but these days it looks more and more like a business conglomerate where revenue is placed on a pedestal at the expense of everything else. Hundreds of billions of dollars "change hands" annually, football players become millionaires with their first contracts, teams are sponsored by dubious companies, and fans will soon have to mess with their savings just to go to a game.

The ugly truth about football is documented in one of the most criticized books - Football Leaks: Uncovering the Dirty deals behind the beautiful game. It's an explosive story and the biggest leak of classified data, proving the shady business world behind the world's most popular game.

In 2016, a "whistleblower" decided to lift the curtain for the average football fan and demonstrate how black the world of football is. Known only as 'John', he began a steady stream of documents revealing the scandalous actions of teams, agents, managers and players over the years.

From the shocking facts of the transfers of Neymar, Pogba and Coutinho to the loopholes used by all involved to evade taxes and profits, the book details the decline of modern football. At the same time, it's a story of how one fan just wants to expose all this and free his beloved game from its corrupt rulers. And now he cannot reveal his identity because the consequences for him could be fatal.
