Focusing on FIFA's influence, the book examines its role in the evolution of African football and the dynamics with local football associations. It highlights Africa's growing significance in global football, while addressing the economic challenges that persist due to disparities between developed and developing nations. The author argues that Africa's progress is closely linked to its political and economic context, revealing that FIFA's power structure still predominantly benefits European members.
