Through conversations with personalities from various fields, Cèlia Sànchez-Mústich weaves a narrative where football becomes a pretext to reflect on human relationships, values, and society. The common thread is the history of the Sitges Veterans, a club that embodies fraternity and passion for the sport. A book that invites the reader to look at football from an unexpected perspective, where communication and emotion go far beyond results and trophies.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat is it about?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe book is structured around a series of conversations and reflections on football, but not from a strictly sporting point of view. The author invites figures such as Guillermina Motta, Lorenzo Quinn, Oleguer Presas, Joan Laporta, or Arcadi Oliveres, among others, to share their thoughts on the game. Each voice brings a unique perspective, addressing topics such as relationships, time, chance, or human values, with football as the starting point. The narrative is complemented by the history of the Sitges Veterans, a team that represents the connection between grassroots football, fraternity, and communication. The work thus becomes a tapestry of voices and ideas that invite deep reflection on the role of sport in personal and collective life.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eMain themes\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eFootball as a mirror of human relationships and social values.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eFraternity and communication as the cornerstones of grassroots football.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eReflection on time, chance, and transcendence in sport.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eThe diversity of perspectives on football from different fields (art, politics, psychology, thought).\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\u003cli\u003eA critique of the purely competitive and materialistic view of football.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eWho is it recommended for?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis book is recommended for readers interested in football from a humanistic and reflective perspective, beyond sporting results.
