No one knew it when their experiment began, but without any particular genius or acumen, the motley cast of billionaires and hucksters behind the modern Premier League struck gold.<\/p>\n<p> Pretty soon, everyone wanted to try their luck, from Russian oligarchs to Emirati sheikhs, American tycoons, and Asian Tiger titans. Some succeeded beyond their wildest dreams. Some lost everything. Today, players are sold for tens of millions, clubs are valued in the billions, and games are beamed out to nearly two hundred countries, all while the league struggles to preserve its English soul.<\/p>\n<p> Deeply researched and drawing on one hundred exclusive interviews, including the key decision makers at every major English team, The Club is the definitive and wildly entertaining narrative of how the Premier League took over the world.    <br \/> <br \/>\n         From the Publisher            <\/p>\n<p>                                          <img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Banner 2\" src=\"https:\/\/images-na.ssl-images-amazon.com\/images\/G\/01\/x-locale\/common\/grey-pixel.gif\" class=\"a-lazy-loaded\" data-src=\"https:\/\/m.media-amazon.com\/images\/S\/aplus-media\/vc\/5d898f9a-14a5-4903-b06d-fa3d57febc5d.__CR0,0,970,300_PT0_SX970_V1___.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Banner 2\" src=\"https:\/\/m.media-amazon.com\/images\/S\/aplus-media\/vc\/5d898f9a-14a5-4903-b06d-fa3d57febc5d.__CR0,0,970,300_PT0_SX970_V1___.jpg\">   <\/p>\n<p>                         Add to Cart  <\/p>\n<p>                         Add to Cart  <\/p>\n<p>                         Add to Cart  <\/p>\n<p>                             Customer Reviews  <\/p>\n<p>                    4.7 out of 5 stars <\/p>\n<p>                        1,563 <\/p>\n<p>                    4.5 out of 5 stars <\/p>\n<p>                        580 <\/p>\n<p>                    4.5 out of 5 stars <\/p>\n<p>                        110 <\/p>\n<p>                             Price  <\/p>\n<p>                                    $13.89$13.89                  $17.99$17.99                  $9.99$9.99        <\/p>\n<p> Publisher                                    \u200f                                        :                                    \u200e                                 Mariner Books; Reprint edition (September 3, 2019) <br \/> Language                                    \u200f                                        :                                    \u200e                                 English <br \/> Paperback                                    \u200f                                        :                                    \u200e                                 384 pages <br \/> ISBN-10                                    \u200f                                        :                                    \u200e                                 0358213053 <br \/> ISBN-13                                    \u200f                                        :                                    \u200e                                 978-0358213055 <br \/> Item Weight                                    \u200f                                        :                                    \u200e                                 2.31 pounds <br \/> Dimensions                                    \u200f                                        :                                    \u200e                                 5.31 x 0.94 x 8 inches <\/p>\n<div id=\"product-summary\" data-hook=\"cr-insights-widget-summary\" class=\"a-section a-spacing-none\">\n<div class=\"a-section a-spacing-small a-spacing-top-\">\n<h3 data-hook=\"cr-insights-heading-label\" class=\"a-size-base-plus a-color-base a-text-bold\">Customers say<\/h3>\n<\/div>\n<p class=\"a-spacing-small\"><span>Customers find the book wonderful, enjoyable, and well-written.
