11 ciudades

Soccer is much more than a sport between two teams of eleven players. Axel Torres knows this well and, despite his youth, he is currently one of the brightest and most respected voices of sports journalism in the Spanish language. His comments and ideas on the sport of king have forged an extensive community of listeners and viewers -from the program "Marcador Internacional", on Radio Marca, and from "Planeta Axel", on Gol TV - who live soccer as a phenomenon that transcends sports and which is part of the personal culture in a lively and intense way. 11 cities, his first book, is the most original story of the birth of two great passions: the passion for travel and sports journalism, with football as the backdrop, no matter where it is practiced. This is the founding story of a tireless and curious traveler, who from a young age decided that he wanted to be a sports journalist and who has devoted his entire life to knowing and publicizing football as an international phenomenon from the prism of personal and collective passion. Through eleven trips in the best tradition of literature of the genre, we witness the progressive fascination for the football universe, from his first dabbling in the club where Axel Torres started playing when he was young - Sabadell -, to his consecration as one of the referents of sports journalism, accounting both for key matches in the recent history of football and for portraits of football communities that, despite not having transcended internationally, explain with their passion why football is the most important sport of the planet.
