The football API service returns team, competition, federation, player, and country names translated into multiple languages.
INTRODUCTION
Because demand for our football api keeps growing, we have rolled out multi language support across our endpoints. The good news for you: there is no need to rewrite anything. Just add one extra parameter to the software that already integrates the football API and you are set. Plenty of our endpoints accept language translations. Each endpoint dedicated documentation page spells out exactly what is available.
LANGUAGES
At this moment we cover 30+ languages. To apply a translation in your code, just append the lang parameter to the URL that you already call. The language codes used across our football api service follow the ISO standard nomenclature: ISO 639-1. The table below shows the adjustments required when you want responses from our football api services in the language of your choice.
