Soccer is a sport fueled by passion and unwavering loyalty. When choosing gifts for the soccer lover in your life, it’s wise to avoid items tied to a specific team or player—after all, you wouldn’t want to make a wrong choice. That said, many of the gifts featured here can be customized to reflect their favorite team or player. If this person holds a special place in your heart and is a dedicated soccer fan, chances are you already know their team allegiance, giving you a solid starting point.
Note that this guide is tailored for fans, not players—though we also have a dedicated list of the best gifts for soccer players if you’re looking for something more sport-specific.
Ted Lasso and AFC Richmond Merchandise

No matter which team or player soccer fans cheer for, Ted Lasso and AFC Richmond have won universal admiration. The Apple TV series has captivated not only soccer enthusiasts but also those unfamiliar with the sport, much like the titular character himself. The show follows an American football coach who bravely steps into the role of coaching a soccer team in England, despite having no prior knowledge of the game. The official Warner Brother’s online store offers genuine Ted Lasso merchandise, including Ted’s signature V-neck sweater and AFC Richmond’s official jersey (a fictional team created exclusively for the series).
Table football

Foosball is an enjoyable game, but the tables are often costly or too bulky. However, this option solves both issues. Standing at just four feet tall and currently priced at $145, it’s a compact and affordable choice. If your loved one has a bit of room in their home or garage, this could be a delightful addition.
European Soccer Clubs Poster

For the soccer enthusiast who adores European football (as most do), this map is bound to captivate them. The poster features over 1,000 European clubs, each represented by their official crest and placed in their geographic location. Printed on premium cover stock with high-resolution detail, it ensures every team is visible. The standard 36" by 24" size makes it easy to frame and display.
Biñho board game

The Binho board game offers a fresh and exciting way to enjoy soccer, gaining popularity on social media and in sports bars. Think of it as a modern, portable version of foosball that’s more interactive and convenient to bring along to gatherings or bars. To get a better idea of how it’s played, check out the video below.
2022 World Cup classic beer glass

For the soccer fan who also enjoys beer, the World Cup beer glass will become their preferred choice for game-day drinks. Standing at 7.7 inches tall with a capacity of 9.5 fluid ounces, it’s crafted from durable borosilicate glass. This stunning replica of the actual World Cup trophy is one of the most visually appealing options available online, priced at approximately $18.
FIFA World Cup replica trophy

If beer isn’t your loved one’s preferred drink, don’t worry—I’ve got something even better: a World Cup replica trophy crafted to official size specifications. Let them revel in the glory of displaying it proudly on their bookshelf, as it’s likely the closest they’ll ever come to owning a real World Cup trophy. If you gift this to them, keep in mind the next World Cup is set for 2026 in Canada, the U.S., and Mexico. Bringing the trophy to the games might just bring some luck to the match!
Sphero educational game

For young soccer enthusiasts, this educational game offers a playful introduction to coding. The objective is to score goals by navigating around obstacles and overcoming challenges. The soccer ball is controlled via a game app using motion controls, and some tasks incorporate basic coding principles, making learning both fun and interactive. Watch the video below to see how it works.
Retro jerseys

For the soccer fan who loves a trip down memory lane, retro jerseys are a perfect way to celebrate the golden eras of the sport. Specialized stores and online platforms focus on sourcing and reselling vintage jerseys, which often become highly sought-after over time. Knowing their favorite club, national team, or even a beloved player is key here. If your loved one is a die-hard supporter, they’ll instantly recognize and cherish a retro jersey, especially since these gems are rare and hard to come by.
Vintage-inspired jerseys

Football Town creates vintage-style streetwear inspired by soccer, designed for fans of the sport. Their collection includes shirts, sweaters, and hoodies featuring designs for major clubs and national teams. Unlike traditional jerseys, these pieces are crafted entirely from cotton, making them ideal for casual wear rather than gameplay. Their unique and striking designs are sure to turn heads.
Trip to Europe to watch El Clasico

For any soccer enthusiast, witnessing a thrilling match is a dream come true. El Clásico, the legendary rivalry between Real Madrid and Barcelona, stands as one of the most iconic (if not the most iconic) clashes in European football. If you’re ready to invest around $3,500, this trip offers the ultimate soccer experience for your loved one, especially if they support Real Madrid or Barcelona. The package includes match tickets, flights, accommodations, guided tours of Spain, breakfast, and more.
Note that similar travel packages are available for other major soccer teams. If this idea appeals to you but your loved one supports a different club, simply search for “(team name) + fan trip package” online. Chances are, you’ll find a tailored option that suits their passion perfectly.
