When Jurgen Klinsmann signed for Tottenham Hotspur in August 1994 for £2.2 million,it was the transfer sensation of the year.The German international striker,who helped his country to win the World Cup in 1990 and is one of the world's greatest players,had hardly been popular in England,yet almost immediately his reputation was transformed.Klinsmania had arrived!
In 'Klinsmann',a fascinating account of the star's dramatic first season at Tottenham,Harry Harris analyses the player's impact on the club and on English football by interviewing the key personalities - ex-manager Ossie Ardiles, chairman Alan Sugar,team-mates and opponents - as well as including many of Klinsmann's revealing interviews.In addition,the book explores the German's hopes for the future,the problems presented by Premiership football,his past and his family background.More eloquent in his second language than some players in their first,Klinnsmann has settled into his new life with enthusiasm and with great ease.Harris brilliantly captures the atmosphere of hope and revival that Klinsmann created at Spurs,a club still searching for its momentum until his arrival.
Suddenly,all Tottenham's matches were sell-outs and the team was playing a brand of open and attractive football that kept the fans coming. 'Klinsmann' illustrated with many superb action photographs,is much more than a review of a few months in the player's life - it gives an understanding of what motivates him,what his background was like,how he has reacted to England and how the English have reacted to him.
