With the Premier League season kicking off today, there are a fair few things to note beforehand. With the League’s new branding scheme focusing more on the football than ever before, we’ll likely see an even bigger push from clubs, promoting themselves on social media.

Premier League clubs are social media marketing powerhouses (as well as being fairly good at kicking plastic air-filled bladders around too) with a combined 40-million Twitter followers; and that’s not even mentioning reach through hashtags and other platforms.

But while watching football sure is fun, we live in the age of social media.

Have a look at all the Premier League clubs’ Twitter, Facebook and Instagram accounts below, along with their Snapchat and YouTube details if available.

AFC Bournemouth
