"Unai Emery is widely considered as one of the best football coaches in the world. This authorised biography includes an exclusive interview with Unai himself as he starts his new challenge at Arsenal FC. El Maestro -- Spanish for teacher -- takes you on a journey from Emery's Basque Country upbringing, through his playing days, managerial education, domestic and European trophy winning successes in Spain and France, to his arrival as Arsène Wenger's successor in North London. Given unprecedented access to friends and family, author Romain Molina tells the life story through those who know him best -- including his former players David Villa, Edinson Cavani, Alvaro Negredo and Juan Mata. His innate ability to bring out the best in some of the games' brightest stars including the most expensive, in Brazilian Neymar and Kylian Mbappé, the young star in France's World Cup 2018 winning team, is discussed along with the tactics he likes to employ. Whether an Arsenal fan wanting to learn more about the club's first new manager in 22 years or the informed football enthusiast intrigued by the latest European to hit the Premier League - this is a story you won't want to miss." -- Provided by publisher

Der Autor bietet eine kritische Analyse des modernen Fußballs und beleuchtet die oft unsichtbaren Akteure hinter dem Spektakel. Er untersucht das Geschäft rund um den Sport, das von mächtigen Persönlichkeiten geprägt ist, und thematisiert die Entmenschlichung und das ständige Storytelling, das den Fußball umgibt. Von einflussreichen Figuren wie Abramovitch bis Zahavi werden die Strategien und Machenschaften derjenigen aufgedeckt, die im Hintergrund agieren und den Fußball entscheidend beeinflussen.
