“More than just a restaurant, La Parrila de Usero has been a meeting place for generations of athletes over the years, and to be able to relive that and tell it in this book is certainly one of the greatest prides of my life,” concludes Isak, who now shares his memories and experiences in this book, which also features his favorite team, Atlético Madrid.
