Once described as a man with a first division head and fourth division feet, Jürgen Klopp's route into football was far from easy. But his infectious charisma, combined with the relentless energy of his 'Heavy Metal Football', meant that his success in management was inevitable. This is the extraordinary story of how Jürgen overcame failure in Frankfurt to become one of the greatest managers in the world, conquering German, English, and Champions League football along the way. This book is part of Tales from the Touchline - a new offshoot from Ransom's popular Tales from the Pitch series. In each of these books, Harry Conix reveals the inspiring journey of a game-changing manager, in a fresh, pundit-like voice. 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 128 pages long, these books have been specially written and designed to make them ideal reads for reluctant and dyslexic readers.
