Career Path shows the clubs of a famous footballer’s career in order, one at a time. Search for the player you think it is — each wrong guess reveals the next club. Only one famous player in our data has played for all four clubs, so there is always exactly one answer.
Where do the careers come from?
Wikidata, the open database behind Wikipedia. Only transfers at least a season old are used, so every club is an established fact.
Can two players fit the same clubs?
No. Every puzzle is checked so that only one famous player has played for all four clubs.
Is it the same player for everyone?
Yes — one player a day, the same for everyone, changing at midnight UTC.
When does the puzzle change?
At midnight UTC — one puzzle per game per day, the same for everyone.
Where does the data come from?
Player puzzles use real club careers from Wikidata, the open database behind Wikipedia (public domain, CC0). Every clue is a career fact — a club a player has played for at any point, or the country he represented — so a transfer never makes an answer wrong. List puzzles use settled football history. Every puzzle is checked before it is published.
