This research investigates the role played by football as a means to build, configure and strengthen national identities in Spain between 1975 and 2017. At the methodological level, bibliography and the main Spanish magazines and newspapers of the period were reviewed – both those featuring sports and general information. The main findings show us how the press has rewritten the various narratives about Spanish national identity in recent years and became the ideal tool to associate certain stereotypes and myths with the Spanish national football team and the main football clubs. Likewise, the relationship between football and the media has also played a key role in creating and changing identity discourses in Catalonia and the Basque Country in recent decades.
