Whether you fancy yourself as a seasoned football encyclopaedia or just want a sharp mental workout before the weekend fixtures, BBC Sport's daily quiz lineup is back — and No 77 in the long-running Who Am I? series is ready to test even the most clued-up Premier League followers.
What is the Who Am I? quiz?
The format is straightforward. You are given a series of clues about a Premier League player and your job is to identify them in as few attempts as possible. Each wrong guess unlocks a fresh clue, which sounds generous until you realise every additional hint chips away at your score. The fewer clues you need, the more points land in your column. It rewards the quick and punishes the uncertain — proper football pub-quiz energy, delivered straight to your screen.
Today's edition — Who Am I? No 77 — features a current Premier League star. Beyond that, the lips are sealed. You will need to fire up the quiz itself to see how quickly you can pin down the identity.
Five in Five and the Brainteaser
Once you have dealt with the mystery player, BBC Sport serves up two further challenges to round off your daily football-brain session.
- Five in Five — five correct answers required inside five minutes. The clock is the enemy here, so no lingering on the ones you half-know.
- The Brainteaser — a single fiendishly difficult question with five lives standing between you and the reveal. Think carefully before committing; those lives disappear faster than expected.
All three quizzes are free to access via BBC Sport and sit on the dedicated Football Quizzes page, where every previous edition is archived so you can go back and chase a cleaner score on anything you fumbled earlier in the series.
Why these quizzes have built a following
The daily rhythm is key. Rather than a one-off novelty, BBC Sport has structured the quizzes as a consistent challenge — something fans return to before, during or after the working day in the same way they might check scores or scroll through the gossip column. The points system in Who Am I? adds a competitive layer that a straight trivia format lacks; there is always a reason to try again tomorrow and post a better number.
For Fantasy Premier League managers, the quizzes also double as a useful exercise in keeping squad knowledge sharp. Knowing your Premier League rosters inside out, including players who move between clubs, change positions or rotate in and out of starting elevens, matters when the transfer deadline clock is ticking.
