The Gentleman
Gianluca Vialli and How He Changed English Football Forever
His influence was never purely tactical, though he understood the game deeply. It was cultural — an Italian sense of preparation and detail, translated, never imposed, into the rhythms of English football.
Chronicling the people behind the sport
Luca Dal Monte writes biography and narrative non-fiction from the world of motorsport and football — books built on years of archival research and first-hand interviews, read and translated across the globe. His Ferrari Rex was described by The New York Times as “the definitive biography” of Enzo Ferrari.
