Football in Slovenia is governed by the Football Association of Slovenia (Slovene: Nogometna zveza Slovenije). Slovenia has been participating in international football as an independent country since 1991, when the country gained independence from SFR Yugoslavia. The Slovenia national football team has qualified for four major tournaments (UEFA Euro 2000, 2002 FIFA World Cup, 2010 FIFA World Cup, and UEFA Euro 2024).

The three biggest clubs in Slovenia are Maribor, Mura and Olimpija.
