Description
Johan Cruyff's 1983 season at Feyenoord was a turning point in his career. After guiding Ajax to a league and cup double, he unexpectedly left the club due to a contract dispute. This decision would prove pivotal as he led Feyenoord to another league and cup double, silencing critics and thrilling football fans. Cruyff's time at Feyenoord was marked by both on-field success and personal turmoil. He dealt with kidnappings, bankruptcy, and financial loss after being defrauded by a conman. Yet, despite these challenges, he remained an imperious force on the pitch. This book provides a fascinating insight into Cruyff's professional and private life, exploring the mentality that made him a top player and successful coach. Written with a journalistic tone, Fierce Genius: Cruyff's Year at Feyenoord offers a warm, affectionate, and informative portrait of one of world football's greats.
