Sport Social Podcast Network recently announced the acquisition of The Anfield Wrap as its newest podcast member. The Anfield Wrap offers in-depth and passionate coverage of every Liverpool FC game. Established in 2011, the podcast has evolved from a small project among friends to a major production, releasing more than 100 podcasts and videos monthly.
The series averages 250,000 weekly downloads and more than 40 million total downloads globally. It has also staged live shows in various countries, including the US, Canada, and several European and Asian nations. The show even had live performances at fan festivals during three Champions League finals.
The Anfield Wrap CEO Neil Atkinson commented, “In switching over to Sport Social we were committing to their future vision. For a long time now, we have been working with so many different voices across the football spectrum – and it made complete sense for us to partner with a network which is passionate about sport, news and entertainment – and where there’s a genuine feeling of creativity in the space we are communing in.”
Sport Social Podcast Network Head Stefan Doyle said, “The Anfield Wrap is a giant in the world of Premier League fan media, and we’re thrilled to welcome Neil and the team to Sport Social! Adding The Anfield Wrap to our network strengthens our position as the go-to destination for outstanding football content for fans which will also create exciting opportunities for advertisers looking to reach Liverpool FC fans.”
