Black Friday is a retail phenomenon offering widespread discounts and special offers on items that originated in the United States, but has now taken hold across the globe.
If you tend to keep an eye out for bargains when it comes to getting your football gear or football-themed gifts, Black Friday provides an ideal period of knock-down prices, where value can be found.
It happens each year in the final week of November and many people look to take advantage of the offers in the lead up to the Christmas period.
With Black Friday 2019 upon us, Goal takes a look at some of the best deals on football boots, shirts and TV streaming services in the United Kingdom.
