The International Federation of Football History & Statistics (IFFHS) is an organisation that records the history and records of association football.[2][3][4] It was founded in 1984 by Alfredo Pöge in Leipzig.[2] The IFFHS was originally based in Abu Dhabi, but moved to Bonn, Germany in 2010, and then in 2014 to Zürich.[5]

The IFFHS has no affiliation with FIFA,[6] but FIFA has cited awards and records done by the IFFHS on their website.[7][8][9][10]
