69. Pasión: The Fan-Owned Phoenix Clubs of Spain


Listen Later

We're joined once again by journalist and author Miguel Pereira to talk about the new subculture making waves in Spanish football and the cultural phenomenon that underpins it.

'Pasión' is a concept which encapsulates the expression of extravagant, unbridled joyn and loyalty which manifests itself on Spain's terraces. It is a cultural phenomenon, similar in concept to 'Saudade' in Portugal.

In Spain's 3rd and 4th tier, a new subculture of fan-owned phoenix clubs has swept across the country. The founders of these clubs embody Pasión in it's purest form, forming new clubs to carry forward an identity and set of values which rogue billionaire owners took from them.

We cover this Miguel in full, through the lens of his latest book.
