The Nowhere Men - Michael Calvin
This is the winner of The Times British Sports Book Award 2014. A teenaged boy plays football in a suburban park. It is a fascinating insight into the enclosed world of football scouts in the UK.
The call is made: "Get down here quick. His name is Raheem Sterling. This is something special".
Another boy is 8, going on 28. His name is Jack Wilshere. The referee, an Arsenal scout, spirits him away from Luton Town.
A young goalkeeper struggles on loan at Cheltenham Town in League Two. His name is Jack Butland. Within months he will be playing for England.
Welcome to football's hidden tribe. Scouts are everywhere yet nowhere, faceless and nameless, despite making the informed decisions worth millions. Award-winning sportswriter Michael Calvin opens up their hidden world, examining their disconnected lifestyles, petty betrayals and unconsidered professionalism of men who spend long, lonely hours on the road.
