Category Archive: The Guide

We travel across the peninsula to take a closer look at the clubs and ultras that take centre stage in Italian football, and to explore the cities and stadiums that provide the backdrop for the theatre of calcio. A guide yes, but one that ventures off the sporting track and leads you through the historical, political and social landscapes that have shaped the very identity of Italy’s great teams.

Feel our passion. Feel Italy’s passion.
