The prevalence of hate crime within football has been a concerning issue, despite the widespread adoption of anti-racist measures such as "taking the knee." This book, through a unique collection of testimonies, showcases that hostility is a daily occurrence for some professional football players, ranging from online threats to physical intimidation and violence at football matches.
