Sports Books coming later in 2025

A lot of great reads to look forward to

There are tons of great sports books coming out soon. As usually lots of football/soccer books, but some from my favourite writers. Some top-quality boxing books coming out too. Can also tell Winter Olympics are coming with, among other things, two different books by Curling legends.

I’ve listed 22 books I’m especially looking forward to (including the obligatory books about Ireland and Philadelphia sports). Then scroll down further for the full list of books divided by sport.

Let me know what books you're looking forward to reading over the summer and the rest of 2025. Happy reading!

3. 🥊Blood & Hate: The Untold Story of Marvelous Marvin Hagler's Battle for Glory by Dave Wedge. Every boxing book from Hamilcar Publications is a must read. This promises to be no different.
