Steve Farrugia

About Me

As you can tell from the huge banner at the top, my name is Steve! I’m what some call a “finance bro,” based in Malta (not Wall Street). So what does a bank guy know about sports? Well, back in the day, I was a pretty decent football (soccer) player, making appearances in the 4th tier of Maltese football before my knee had other ideas. I even tried rugby for a bit, but let’s say that didn’t go so well!

Nowadays, most of my free time is spent at the gym or following sports. This passion led to starting CleatsHub and Field Insider, sports platforms designed to share high-quality content from our personal knowledge.

How many years did I play football?

I’ve been playing football as long as I can remember, nearly 20 years! When my soccer career took a pause, I found a new interest in what Dwayne ‘The Rock’ Johnson calls the Iron Paradise. I still enjoy 5-a-sides and run obstacle courses now and then to keep that competitive spirit alive.

Which sports do I prefer?

Football (soccer) is my main sport, but I’ve also developed a growing interest in American sports like the NBA and NFL. If it weren’t for the time-zone difference, I’d be watching them even more!

What’s my main profession?

Around six years ago, I started my full-time career in banking and finance. Today, I work in investments and payments with a focus on leadership. You can check out my LinkedIn profile here.

What else do I do aside from finance?

I’m still a huge sports enthusiast, so much of my time goes into analyzing sports strategies (thinking I’m the next Guardiola or Belichick). That’s one of the reasons behind Field Insider. Besides, I’m big on fitness, hitting the gym three times a week, following my own cutting and bulking routines. I also dabble in digital marketing and programming and hope to pursue a career in one of these fields someday.
