物語は、2018 FIFAワールドカップで日本が敗退したことから始まり、日本サッカー協会は2022年のワールドカップに向けてトレーニングを始める高校生選手をスカウトするプログラムを開始することになった。
The story begins with Japans elimination from the 2018 FIFA World Cup, which prompts the Japanese Football Union to start a programme scouting high school players who will begin training in preparation for the 2022 Cup. Isagi Youichi, a forward, receives an invitation to this programme soon after his team loses the chance to go to Nationals because he passed to his less-skilled teammate – who missed – without trying to make the game-changing goal by himself. Their coach will be Ego Jinpachi, who intends to destroy Japanese loser football by introducing a radical new training regimen: isolate 300 young forwards in a prison-like institution called Blue Lock and put them through rigorous training aimed at creating the worlds greatest egotist striker.
