Kannan V is a lifelong football obsessive whose hair seems to turn a little greyer with every sentence written, a small price to pay for a sport that’s been fueling his joy since 1994.
Football appreciation comes instinctively to him now, shaped by years of falling in love with teams across eras: from Brazil’s iconic 1994 World Cup winners to Marcelo Bielsa’s modern-day Leeds United. But if there’s one side that truly made him leap out of his chair, it’s Pep Guardiola’s Barcelona between 2008 and 2012, the benchmark he still measures wonder against.
Today, his work blends football with his other passion, writing, as he creates thoughtful, meaningful pieces that give fans around the world something worth reading.
