Футбол 24

What is Футбол 24?

Футбол 24 is a Ukrainian football news site published at football24.ua. Unlike most Ukrainian sports titles it names its publisher on the site: both the footer and the published editorial policy give ПрАТ «Телерадіокомпанія Люкс», at "пл. Галицька, буд. 15, м. Львів, 79008", with a Lviv telephone number and a legal contact address at the 24tv.com.ua domain.^[1]

The same pages give the outlet's entry in the Ukrainian register of media subjects: "Ідентифікатор онлайн-медіа в Реєстрі суб'єктів у сфері медіа — R40-06058".^[2] Beyond the corporate name and address, the site publishes no account of its ownership structure or funding, and none is asserted here.

What does Футбол 24 cover?

The site is single-sport by design. Read on 21 September 2026 it carried the Ukrainian Premier League alongside the English Premier League with standings and match reports, La Liga including the Madrid derby, and Portuguese club football including Porto against Benfica, with transfer coverage and player interviews running alongside the results.^[1]

It maintains separate standing pages for its editorial staff, its privacy policy and its editorial policy, the last of which states five principles the outlet says it works to: verification of accuracy, timeliness, balance of perspectives, the separation of facts from opinion, and completeness of context.^[2] Those are the outlet's own stated standards.

Its domestic coverage runs alongside the league's own arrangements: the Ukrainian Premier League produces every match into its own pool and said in July 2026 that it intended to move to exclusive rights from the winter of 2027, with an opening asking price of 10 million US dollars a season.^[3]

How large is Футбол 24's audience?

No audited readership figure for Футбол 24 could be retrieved for this page, and none is given here.

Ukraine publishes no audited circulation currency for online titles. The audited currency that does exist covers television and was then the Nielsen panel, and a trade report of 9 September 2026 sets out its limits: it covered only settlements of 50,000 inhabitants and above, and the market was openly discussing who should conduct a replacement measurement, on what technology and at whose cost, participants citing among their reasons what one of them called the realities of electricity supply and of population displacement.^[4]

Commercial traffic estimators are not audited measurement and no estimate from one is presented here as though it were. The site makes no audience claim of its own on the pages read, so there is no figure to attribute either way, and its published editorial policy addresses standards rather than reach.^[2]

Since when has Футбол 24 existed?

The site publishes no launch date. What it does publish is a copyright line running "© 2005 - 2026" in the name of ПрАТ «Телерадіокомпанія Люкс», which places continuous publication under that company across that span but is not a statement of when the title itself began.^[2]

Its registration is more recent and separately dated by its nature: the identifier R40-06058 records an entry in the register of media subjects maintained under the media legislation now in force, not a founding act.^[1] Founding, registration and the copyright span are three different things and are kept apart here.

No independent source giving a launch date for the title could be retrieved for this page, and the publisher's own pages do not supply one. What the copyright line and the register entry together establish is that the title has been published under a named Ukrainian company and is currently registered as an online medium, which is a narrower statement than a founding date but a sourced one.^[2]

Why does Футбол 24 matter in Ukraine's sport?

Its first distinguishing feature is disclosure. Among Ukrainian sports titles read for this list it is the one that names its corporate publisher, its registered address and its register identifier on its own pages, which is what allows an ownership statement about it to carry a source rather than an inference.^[2]

Its second is that it publishes a written editorial policy setting out the standards it says it applies, which is a document a reader can hold it to.^[2]

Its third is continuity of dated domestic football coverage through the period since March 2022, in which national television news has operated under the unified arrangement given effect by Presidential Decree No. 152/2022 of 19 March 2022.^[5] The instrument is directed at national television channels; the site was publishing dated football coverage of both the Ukrainian and the major European competitions when it was read.^[1]
