«How to Be a Footballer» is Peter Crouch's memoir and humour book, published by Ebury Press in hardback (304 pages, in English).
Crouch looks back on his career and the day-to-day of professional football: training, dressing rooms, superstitions, interviews and social media. With self-deprecating humour, he tells anecdotes about eccentric teammates and managers such as Harry Redknapp and Rafa Benítez, and reveals the more absurd side of life as an elite footballer.
Published on 6 September 2018. It was shortlisted for the National Book Awards and named sports book of the year by The Sunday Times.
For football fans and sports memoir readers looking for an entertaining, jargon-free read.
