This Special Issue will take a broad-minded and holistic approach to Euro 2028. It welcomes contributions from researchers situated in different academic fields, including, for example, sociology, international relations, history, media and communication, sport management, urban geography and more. As situated in a pre-event setting, the types of papers that are encouraged include not only original research articles, but also shorter commentaries or discussion pieces, case studies or review articles.

The increasing interest for girls and women to follow football, both live and through old and new media, raises important issues regarding politics, engagement, identity, gender, and power relations. This special issue of Soccer & Society, with guest editors Aage Radmann and Susanna Hedenborg, highlights female fandom in a global perspective. We welcome multi-disciplinary approaches to the theme.
