About the Book

BOOK DESCRIPTION:

Dive into the heart of the world's most beloved sport and uncover the dark underbelly that has tarnished its beauty for far too long. "Racism in Soccer" is a groundbreaking exploration that delves into the pervasive issue of discrimination within the realm of football, exposing the systemic challenges, triumphs, and ongoing struggles faced by players on the pitch.

In this compelling narrative, we embark on a journey through the last decade, tracing the evolution of soccer authorities' responses to racial abuse incidents. From the courageous stand of Kevin-Prince Boateng that sparked a movement to FIFA and UEFA's establishment of task forces and disciplinary code enhancements, the book unveils the complex web of challenges faced by those fighting against racism in the sport.

Discover the impactful decisions that shaped the landscape, such as FIFA's groundbreaking 2013 ruling on 10-match bans for racist conduct and the ambitious proposals of Sepp Blatter that faced the harsh reality of court precedents. The narrative unfolds against a backdrop of dropped cases, the punishing of accusers, and instances where players boldly embraced their power to stand against racism, like the unforgettable moment when Paris Saint-Germain and Istanbul Basaksehir players refused to continue a Champions League game.

As the book traverses global soccer, it sheds light on the pervasive nature of racism beyond European borders, from monkey chants in stadiums to online abuse that transcends continents. The targeted racism against players like Vinícius Júnior in Spain becomes a poignant reminder of the challenges faced by individuals and the frustrations over inadequate responses from soccer authorities.

The journey culminates in a contemporary snapshot with the Udinese-Milan racism incident, an alarming reminder that the battle against discrimination is far from over. Swift actions by clubs like Udinese, coupled with the call for stronger sanctions endorsed by FIFA President Gianni Infantino, propel the conversation forward.

"Racism in Soccer" is not just a book; it is a call to action, an exploration of the intricate tapestry of discrimination that lingers within soccer's hallowed grounds. Join us as we navigate through the highs and lows, the victories and setbacks, in this critical examination of racism in soccer-a narrative that demands change, justice, and a future where the beautiful game truly lives up to its name.
