Description:

Michel van Egmond is celebrating an anniversary this year: he has been writing about football full-time for exactly three decades. This anthology brings together the best of his work.
The unique reports in 14 Missed Calls by Cruijff are about meetings with big stars such as Willem van Hanegem, Paul Gascoigne and of course Johan Cruijff, but also tell the almost forgotten life stories of Árpád Weisz and Lutz Eigendorf and Wout Holverda.
Van Egmond goes far for his stories. Often literally. His reports come from all corners of the football world. He travels to Tokyo for a meeting with the Japanese fan club of VVV Venlo, visits Zlatan Ibrahimovic in the heart of Paris and reports in his own mildly ironic tone from Beijing about a very strange press conference by Louis van Gaal.
Collectively, his pieces form a labyrinth of unique stories about the beautiful, moving, funny, surprising and sometimes tragicomic side of football, seen through the eyes of the most widely read sports writer of the moment.
