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.
