Football Academy: The Real Thing is the third book in the bestselling Football Academy series by Tom Palmer.
United's under-twelves are in Poland for a tournament. Goal-keeper Tomasz is very excited to be playing in his home country, but team captain Ryan thinks Poland are rubbish - in fact, he thinks everything Polish is rubbish. Ryan's behaviour causes trouble both on and off the pitch. Can Ryan and Tomasz tackle their differences - or will Ryan's bullying foul United's chance of success?
Researched at a Premier League club, Tom Palmer's Football Academy series is packed with authentic football detail and fast-paced action that will hook young readers from the first page.
