The reader will find a tournament that was played before dinner, an actor who ran for president, the possibility of a Madrid team in the NBA, and an endless array of anecdotes that prove the club's history is about much more than titles.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat is it about?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe work is an ode to surreal knowledge about what they consider \"the Best Club in the World.\" Throughout its pages, it explores peculiar questions such as whether a \"red\" Madrid exists, who had more power between El Átomo and Rambo, or where the new Benitos are. The book clashes the exploits of the veterans and newcomers who triumphed in the Madrid jersey with those of the players who, despite not reaching glory, are also part of its history. It addresses historic comebacks, intergalactic heists, scoring wings, and flashy strikers, offering a unique and lighthearted vision of the club.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eMain themes\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eHistorical anecdotes and trivia about Real Madrid\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eProfiles of legendary and obscure players\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eHumor and surrealism applied to the world of football\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eGlorious sporting moments and memorable failures\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eThe behind-the-scenes history of the club beyond official titles\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWho is it recommended for?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis book is aimed at Real Madrid fans who enjoy deep, yet absurd, knowledge about their team.
