Africa - The future of football

Photograpic book By Pall Stefansson

By Pall Stefansson

Foreword by Didier Drogba
Introduction by Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie
Afterword by Ian Hawkey

At the beginning 2007, Pall Stefansson was travelling in twilight along the road from Kaolack to Dakar in Senegal. In every village along the road he was met by the same sight: a football flying through the air. He decided to follow the football through the countries of Africa and the result is a unique insight into the continent´s football culture where the reader is invited on a journey through the continent, from Capo Verde and Senegal in the West, to Ethiopia and Tansania in the East, from Marocco and Egypt in the North to South Africa in the South. The book shows the energy and joy of everyday life of Africans so often obscured by news of poverty and war. "Africa - the future of football" is about football, but not in the sense that you would expect. Because nothing in Africa is as you would expect. This is a continent where you are met by the unexpected at every turn.

"This book is a celebration of all that is beautiful about African football."
Didier Drogba
