Different Class (häftad, eng)

Shortlisted for Biography of the Year at the British Sports Book Awards

When Laurie Cunningham played for England in an under-21s match against Scotland in 1977, he became the first black footballer to represent England professionally. Two years later, he would become the first Englishman to play for Real MadridIn a time when racist chants flew from the stands, Cunningham''s success challenged how black players were perceived, paving the way for future generations.

But Cunningham was more than an exceptional footballer who could play like a dream. He was a dandy with a love of funk music and bespoke suits, as easily graceful on the dance floor as he was on the pitch.

Different Class is a portrait of an important but unsung figure who brought glamour to the game at a particularly dark point in its historyMany know Laurie Cunningham’s name but not his story; now they will know both.
