书籍简介

附有吉姆和卡维的音频问答 "年度足球书籍。

足球曾经是一项运动。后来它变成了一种生意。

现在，它已成为一个完整的产业。每年有三个月的时间，足球俱乐部都在买卖人。这些人在工作中表现出色，别人愿意花几百万、几千万英镑与他们合作，这是有道理的；正确的交易可以帮助你赢得足球界的奖项，而错误的交易则可能让你丢掉工作，让你的俱乐部破产。

这是一个快节奏、时而阴暗、时而残酷的世界，价值数十亿美元，而吉姆-怀特（Jim White）和卡维-索尔赫科尔（Kaveh Solhekol）数十年来一直处于这个世界的中心。在《截止日》一书中，吉姆和 Kaveh 这两位转会市场专家将带我们走进这个紧张而神秘的世界的幕后，在这里赢家通吃。他们揭示了这场 "游戏中的游戏 "的真实情况，在这里，一切都以合适的价格出售。

地球上富有的一些人和国家，包括美国的亿万富翁投资者和沙特阿拉伯等海湾国家，都在付出这样的代价。吉姆揭示了是什么促使他投身新闻行业，特别是如何爆出大新闻并在足球世界中取得成功。吉姆讲述了历史上一些能改变游戏规则的交易，以及那些被遗忘的交易，其中不乏经典球员、主教练、经纪人和老板，如克里斯蒂亚诺-罗纳尔多（Cristiano Ronaldo）、哈里-凯恩（Harry Kane）和亚历克斯-弗格森（Sir Alex Ferguson）等等。

《截止日》具有敏锐的洞察力、丰富的娱乐性和生动的叙事性，它以前所未见的方式讲述了足球转会窗口，探讨了足球运动面临的一些重大问题。

WITH AN EXCLUSIVE Q&A BETWEEN JIM AND KAVEH FOR THE AUDIOBOOK'The best football book of the year. A must-read for anyone who loves football' Harry RedknappFootball used to be a sport. Then it became a business.

Now it's a whole industry. For three months every year football clubs buy and sell human beings. People who are so good at their job that others are willing to pay millions and millions of pounds to work with them, and for good reason; the right deal can help you win football's top prizes while the wrong deal can cost you your job and bankrupt your club.

It's a fast-paced, at times murky and cutthroat world worth billions - and Jim White and Kaveh Solhekol have been at the heart of it for decades. In Deadline Day, Jim and Kaveh, two leading transfer market experts, take us behind the scenes of this uniquely tense and secretive world where the winner takes it all. They uncover what really happens in this game within the game where everything is for sale at the right price.

And that's a price that's being paid by some of the richest people and countries on the planet, including billionaire US investors and Gulf states such as Saudi Arabia who have money to burn. Jim reveals what led him into journalism, and specifically what it takes to break the biggest stories and make it in the footballing world. Featuring a colourful cast of iconic players, managers, agents and owners - such as Cristiano Ronaldo, Harry Kane and Sir Alex Ferguson to name a few - Jim recounts some of the most game-changing deals in history, as well as the ones that got away.

Perceptive, entertaining and dynamically told, Deadline Day addresses some of the big questions facing the game in a definitive, never-before-told inside story of football's transfer window.
