DK's large-format illustrated guide to the game, fully revised for 2026. Across 408 pages it uses step-by-step artworks, maps, quotes, and statistics to cover history, clubs, national teams, competitions, skills, and the women's game through the 2023 Women's World Cup.
Why we picked it
A picture-led reference a mixed-age family can open to almost any page. It is a newer revision of DK's football title, so skip it if you already own the 2021 Soccer Book.
