What It Takes: The inspiring insight of a boys football journey from childhood dreams to professional footballer

This isn't the glamorous story of a football superstar and legend that will have left fingerprints on the memories of football fans the world over. It is however a familiar story, one that is recognised by everyone, who as a kid, lost themselves in a beautiful football world, a world of camaraderie with friends and competitors, a world of running, passing, tackling, dribbling, shooting and dreaming just for that moment in time, that anything was possible.

Aaron's story takes you through his early football endeavours with his school friends and family in the local streets and parks of England, his recognition as an outstanding international schoolboy football talent in Ireland and subsequent trials with topflight English clubs Chelsea and Luton Town, eventuating in a seven year professional and international career at the heights of English football.

For anyone who seeks an insight into the transition from schoolboy footballer to professional footballer, the twists and turns and highs and lows of a young footballers life, Aaron story will show you 'What it takes'.
