No vuelvas a decir que es imposible. Tragedia y milagro del Granada Club de Fútbol

by Fernando Valverde

El libro del regreso a Primera División de un equipo histórico, el Granada Club de Fútbol, que durante más de tres décadas vagó por la Tercera y la Segunda B rozando la tragedia de la desaparición. No vuelvas a decir que es imposible es un ejemplo de superación y orgullo, de dignidad y paciencia, con todos los ingredientes que hacen que este deporte sea diferente, capaz de mezclar la belleza, la inteligencia y la pasión. Una historia épica, en la que la fatalidad, el miedo y la magia convierten al Granada en un club mítico y legendario que se mantuvo en pie después de las más duras derrotas y que supo renovar la ilusión y los sueños como ningún otro equipo lo ha hecho nunca.
