Description

'If you want to know and understand how football really works, this is the book for you.' - Guillem Balagué

'A myth-busting and hugely entertaining look at the ever more complex machinations of the beautiful game. Essential.' - Raphael Honigstein

'A must-read for football fans.' - Freddie Ljungberg


Insightful, enlightening and thought-provoking, leading Premier League lawyer Daniel Geey lifts the lid on the inner workings of modern football.

What really happens inside a club on transfer deadline day? Are football agents overpaid? Which club put a clause forbidding space travel into a midfielder's contract? And which team's players can never wear red boots?

Whether it is a manager being sacked, a star player transfer, billion-pound television rights negotiations or a controversial club takeover, leading football lawyer Daniel Geey has all the insight.

With an accessible and thoughtful perspective, and featuring expert contributions, Done Deal explores the issues that shape the modern game, providing football fans with a fresh and authoritative look at all off-field football matters.
