It doesn’t seem like five years since the first issue of Champions Journal was published, but here we are with our 20th issue. Back in 2019, we kicked off with then-rising star Trent Alexander-Arnold and new Real Madrid signing Eden Hazard on our covers.

Five years on and Madrid are back on the cover – as Carlo Ancelotti adorns the front this time, explaining how it feels to win club football’s greatest prize for a record fifth time as coach. We’re also thrilled to speak with Stormzy and to hear about how football has been such a key part of his life; and why his #Merky FC project could be so fundamental to changing attitudes in the game.

We also head to the beaches of San Sebastian and explore Leipzig on our summer break; we talk maths and the method with one of the team behind the new competition format coming into play this season; recall a different time when Nottingham Forest’s miracle men were kings of Europe while also checking out Arsenal’s past fashionistas. And, of course, plenty more besides!
