From his experience as a player to his time leading some of the most formidable sides in football history, this is the incredible story of how Pep forged himself into one of the greatest tactical managers of all time.

Along the way, fans will meet some of the biggest personalities in the game, relive the drama of exciting matches, and also discover the very human stories behind the managers they watch on their screens week after week. At only 120 pages long, these books have been specially written and designed to make them ideal reads for reluctant and dyslexic readers.
