I need a recommendation for a soccer book to read over the rest of the summer. I am open to anything biography, tactics, history etc...

I really enjoyed Chasing the Game and also the book Soccernomics. Chasing the Game is a history of US soccer and our quest to no longer be an afterthought in world soccer. I learned from that book that Tim Howard’s idol growing up was LSU’s own Chris Jackson, because they both played basketball and had Tourette’s.

Miracle of Castel di Sangro is a book by a famous American political writer who wrote The Selling of the US Presidency and a book about the OJ Simpson trial.
He moved to Italy for a year in the mid 90s knowing relatively little about soccer and followed a team around that had just gotten promoted to Serie B. It was basically a village team owned by a guy in the mafia that ended up playing against real teams.
The team ended up signing a handful of well-known players as well. All I’ll say is it was a very eventful year.

“A Life to Short”
It’s a book that’s more on the personal level as it’s about the life/death of German goalie, Robert Enke, who committed suicide during his playing career.

This is hilarious but I would not buy this book.

The Club is also pretty much the story of what’s happening in college sports now.
