Eight-year-old Leo dreams of playing Premier League football.
As TIGERS' star striker, he's got the skills - but not the luck.
When their season opener against the EAGLES goes wrong, everything
falls apart. A devastating ankle injury sidelines Leo just when
his team needs him most. His rival Olli steps up as substitute,
leveling the score but leaving TIGERS dangling in the relegation
zone. With only three matches left to save their season and a knockout
cup within reach, time is running out.
Can Leo recover before it's too late? Will TIGERS avoid the drop?
And is that a talent scout watching from the stands...?
Accessible, highly illustrated text to grab young readers
in time for the FIFA World Cup 2026
Gentle messages around teamwork and confidence-building
Written by football fanatic, Scott Allen, first in a series
for boy readers and young super-fans
