Dan Freedman (Author) Dan Freedman dreamed of being a professional footballer. That didn't happen. When he was thirteen, his mum said: 'Why don't you try to be a football writer instead?' And so he did, first becoming a journalist with the England national team and then writing the Jamie Johnson series of novels. He's sold over a million books around the world and visited more than 2,000 schools to encourage young people to go for their goals, on and off the pitch. Daniel Geey (Author) Daniel Geey was lucky enough to grow up going with his dad, brother and family to watch Liverpool at Anfield. He became obsessed with the goals, transfer gossip and Championship Manager. Lots of his family members were lawyers, so he thought he'd better study law at university too. He became a lawyer and after a while started working with players, agents and clubs. He's written two books, 250+ blogs and is the host of The Daniel Geey Podcast.
