Football Connections Word Sort

Football Connections Word Sort is the daily Connections puzzle built for soccer fans. Every puzzle gives you 16 footballer names — your job is to sort them into 4 hidden groups of 4, each sharing a connection only a true fan would spot. New daily challenge every day. Free to play offline.

Think you know football? Prove it.

The groups aren't always obvious. One might be "Ballon d'Or winners," another "Goalkeepers who played for Barcelona," another "Forwards managed by Mourinho." Some puzzles test pure trivia. Others test how closely you actually watch the game. All of them will make you rethink what you thought you knew about the beautiful game.
