About the Book

***SHORTLISTED FOR THE TELEGRAPH SPORTS BOOK AWARDS 2021 – INTERNATIONAL AUTOBIOGRAPHY OF THE YEAR*** THE FIRST AND ONLY AUTOBIOGRAPHY FROM REAL MADRID GALÁCTICO AND WORLD CUP SUPERSTAR LUKA MODRIC. 'Enthralling.' – Oliver Holt, Mail on Sunday ‘Awesome’ – Match Magazine 'Solemn, soulful and occasionally romantic’ – Alyson Rudd, The Times '...an illuminating insight into the career of one of the greatest players in the modern game' – Late Tackle ‘On a level with the great midfield players of the last 20 years.’ - Sir Alex Ferguson, CBE For the first time, Real Madrid galáctico and Croatian legend Luka Modric tells the story of his journey from a childhood in his war-torn homeland to becoming a serial UEFA Champions League winner and one of the most celebrated footballers in the world. Regarded as one of the great midfield players of the last 20 years, Luka reveals the difficulties of growing up during the Croatian War of Independence and his beginnings as a footballer. The FIFA World Cup finalist sets the record straight regarding key moments at Dinamo Zagreb, Tottenham Hotspur and Real Madrid; he gives us intimate insights into his treasured home life; and he brings us his personal account of his career peak – Croatia’s dramatic path to the 2018 FIFA World Cup Final. What were his thoughts during decisive matches? What was his relationship with key players and coaches? What is the inner determination that keeps him on the pitch? What does it take to become the best footballer in the world? Luka was consistently underestimated in his early career, but through grit and determination he has defied the expectations of everyone who doubted him, and reached the ultimate heights of world football. This is Luka Modric in his own words.

Review :
Enthralling Awesome Solemn, soulful and occasionally romantic. A wonderfully talented midfield player who in my opinion is on a level with the great midfield players of the last 20 years. We played together at Tottenham and Real and I have always considered him a great player and a great guy… When you read his story you will understand how you can succeed in life despite all the difficulties and prejudices towards you. Luka's life and football story is incredible. In this book the readers will be able to see for themselves how much hard work and sacrifice stands behind his fantastic success. Emotions are the baseline of this story. Playing alongside Luka, I realized very early on what kind of football genius he is. In this book I found out about the difficult path that my great friend had to tread in order to reach the top. Only the strongest of characters can do that. Playing with Luka is incredibly fun and I enjoy it. His book recounts how many difficult obstacles he had to go through to become the best in the world. It's an instructive and inspiring story. Luka is a wonderful player, talented and responsible. He is a great man as well, always putting the team first. This book makes it perfectly clear how he managed to become the best in the world by staying the same humble guy through and through. an illuminating insight into the career of one of the greatest players in the modern game.

    A Thrilling But Totally Believable Murder Mystery

    Read this in one evening. I had planned to do other things with my day, but it was impossible to put down. Every time I tried, I was drawn back to it in less than 5 minutes. I sobbed my eyes out the entire last 100 pages. Highly recommend!
