Welcome to Transfer News Blitz, a new football brand powered by Sip Media Solutions.

Transfer News Blitz, founded in November 2024, is a website and social media brand driven by the mission to provide a platform for aspiring football writers to showcase their talents through placements and internships.

It is powered by partnerships with universities and colleges in the UK, USA and South Africa, and wants to provide an environment where student journalists can learn their craft.

Transfer News Blitz will become the biggest football brand on the planet powered by the next generation of talented football writers looking to break into the digital media industry.

And with its tagline being ‘We tell it like it is when it comes to transfer talk’, it has a distinct tone of voice in a saturated market of transfer brands chasing Google clicks with ridiculous rumours.

Transfer News Blitz is being managed by Content Editor Ed Moss and Deputy Content Editor Harry Whitfield, who both did a BA (HONS) degree in Sports Journalism at the University of Central Lancashire in Preston.

The dynamic duo have a chemistry forged from three years of being housemates, and Ed Moss told Sip Media Solutions: “I’ve worked really hard to build this brand from the ground up over the past six weeks with Simon Wilkes, who has been a fantastic mentor, sharing his 25 years of experience and teaching me all the ins and outs of SEO.

“We are an official placement provider for universities all over the world and are keen to keep expanding our talented team - we have a contact form on our website where you can get in touch, or don’t hesitate to message us!

“I’m overseeing the website and social content along with the help of my good friend Harry Whitfield.

“I’m also looking forward to working closely with Matthew Dudley and Olly Wilson at Sports News Blitz over the next couple of weeks, as we look to begin taking our first steps into video content here at Transfer News Blitz.

“We’re also on BlueSky, so feel free to check us out and give us a follow on there.

“I’m so excited by this opportunity - this is a long-term project that is only going to keep growing.

“This is just the start, and I can’t wait to see where we can take this brand!”
