Start with any famous name. Green cells are matches; the birth-year arrow and shared clubs narrow it down.
How many guesses do I get?
Eight. The answer is revealed at the end with his photo and career.
Is it free?

When does the puzzle change?

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.
