An examination of how football across the world is increasingly becoming an instrument of political power as investors from China, Russia and the Gulf States buy long-established clubs to help secure economic influence in Europe for their governments. The author also examines how football has sometimes been directed against the state as 'ultras' and hooligans have fought on the front line in revolutions and gone to war. Published in 2022.
