Description:
How does one become a professional football player? What are the stages that lead from training to recognition? What types of personalities does one encounter on the road to success? Are there particular modes of preparation for entering a competition? What are the demands of a life abroad? More simply, how does one live inside of this «football planet» of which an ever larger public dreams? Robert Pires reacts without restraint to these questions, which trigger his own personal interrogations and emotions. For him, team spirit overrules all: «To hand a goal ball over to one of my team mates makes me happier than scoring the goal myself,» he confesses. «Profession Footballer» is an autobiographical narrative, with a natural and direct voice. It was written after a series of interviews with Xavier Rivoire, a journalist.
