Iker Muniain
Un balón, un escudo, una vida
by Patxi Xabier Fernández
Passionate, rebellious, non-conformist, rascal, fighter, referent. Faithful to some colors. There are many ways to define Iker Muniain, but only one to know the person who hides behind the footballer. “That boy with curly hair glued to a ball”, as Joaquín Caparrós recalls, the coach who made him debut at the age of 15, has already spent more than a decade making history with the Athletic Club shirt. This book tells how fame came to him as a teenager, how he fought off two serious knee injuries, how he became captain of his dream team, and how he snuck into a final dressed incognito. A journey through a unique life, in which pain and defeat are mixed with success and happiness. Very few know what elite football is like inside; In this authorized biography, Iker dares to tell it.
