FourFourTwo was launched in 1994 on the back of a World Cup that England hadn’t even qualified for. It was an act of madness… but it somehow worked out.
Now FourFourTwo is the world’s biggest football magazine, published in multiple markets worldwide, with a digital portfolio that includes an iPad and iPhone magazine app – and this, our website.
Our mission is to offer our intelligent, international audience access to the game’s biggest names, insightful analysis... and a bit of a giggle. We unashamedly love this game and we hope that our coverage reflects that.

He's interviewed Pele, Zlatan and Santa Claus (it's a long story), as well as covering Euro 2020 and the Clasico. He previously spent 10 years as a newspaper journalist, and completed the 92 in 2017.
Ed McCambridge is a staff writer at FourFourTwo, working across the magazine and website. A German speaker, he’s been working as a football reporter in Berlin since 2015, predominantly covering the Bundesliga and Germany's national team.

Career highlights include interviewing lifelong hero Robert Pires and witnessing a Puskas winner in the flesh while working for FFT.
Matt joined FourFourTwo in April 2025 and brings with plenty of knowledge in football content and social media. Having produced interviews, documentaries, match reports and podcasts for the best part of the last decade, his highlight reel involves quizzing Trent Alexander-Arnold about his team mates, inviting Rafael van der Vaart to a Spurs game, celebrating a World Cup victory with Morocccan fans in Brussels, and following the England Women's team all over the country during their successful EURO 2022 campaign!

From in-depth interviews with the biggest names in the game, to longform features shining a light on the sport's most incredible stories and our unparalleled annual season previews, FFT has become a staple of the football landscape.
But both our content and our values have always been driven by the fact that we are first-and-foremost football fans. We know that following football is an increasingly expensive pastime – from tickets, to merchandise, to TV subscriptions – so when we recommend a product, we really mean it.
