When Zak isn't scoring goals for his local football team, Redwood Rangers, he is endlessly working on his freestyle videos with his dad. And when one of those videos goes viral, his whole life changes. As the views come rolling in, everyone wants a piece of him. Barcelona want him to shoot an advert with Messi. Major sports brands want to endorse him. Suddenly his face is on every sports channel. But as his celebrity status grows, Zak begins to realise that online fame isn't all it's cracked up to be.
Tekkers is an amusing and entertaining story about the power of social media with the core message that followers are great, but friends are even better.
This is the first book in a planned trilogy of books following Zak on his football and YouTube journey.
Seth Burkett is a sports writer and social media manager who has worked with some of the world's biggest football stars – including Ronaldinho, David Luiz and Wayne Rooney – to create content, as well as their own social media channels. He is the author of The Boy in Brazil, which was shortlisted for Football Book of the Year at the 2015 British Sport Book Awards and Developing the Modern Footballer Through Futsal and Football's Coming Out, which was longlisted for the 2016 William Hill Sport Book of the Year. Most recently he has released his first children's book, No Final Whistle, and worked with football YouTubers Woody and Kleiny on their autobiography.
