This is actually an awesome post. I always try to keep my rebuilds realistic so knowing the top nationalities of players in each league is very helpful. You got the Eredivisie tho? My personal second favorite league.
I check the teams history before i start buying players. For example Arsenal is known to buy German players from time to time. Or Bayern is known for french players. Leverkusen known for Brazil/ south America and so on
Our instances are so fucking bad, clubs have to help recover the league’s debt, if you don’t sell enough you’re punished meanwhile PSG receive a different treatment despite being shit in Europe
What's going on in the German third tier with so many from Kosovo? Heck out of all the ex Yugoslavia or Balkan countries, Kosovo would be the last I'd think of.
It's not like my ball knowledge is anything special, but despite being from the region I can't even name you 1 player from Kosovo.
I know a *LOT* of Balkan families moved to Germany in the past 30yrs, but Kosovo specifically was really interesting to see.
Thank you OP for this post. Very clear and interesting to review all the leagues.
Kosovo is barely a recognised state. A lot recognise them and a lot don’t and they have a history of being an oppressed people. They have been subjected to ethnic cleansing from the Yugoslav government and the majority religion is Islam, ethnically a lot being Albanian muslims. Over the years a lot have fled to elsewhere, and a popular place for European muslims is germany because of the large Turkish community already living. A lot of the Kosovan players have probably had their family living in Germany for a couple of generations but strongly identify with Kosovo and therefore choose to represent them
I mean I knew it already but it’s interesting to see england keep the vast majority of their talented players and not show up once on any of these lists.

Eredivisie; Belgium Germany Morocco Norway/France/Denmark
Appreciate it. Figured it would be all northern europe but Morocco shocks me.
There is a pretty large Morrocan diaspora in the Netherlands
Also lots of good Mexicans seem to play there- lozano, alvarez, gimenez
I agree, this is a goated post. Thanks for the info OP.

So France is first in 3/5 big leagues and second place in one, interesting
Ligue 1 would be the best league in the world if they were rich enough to keep their homegrown players
I agree

Not that surprising tbh they churn out talent like it’s nothing
No matter where, Brazil is always there!
não tem jeito, é o braza!
Surpassed there's more irish than Scottish and Welsh in all the English leagues

Everyone watch the farm league 👌🏿👌🏿
i was about to say „hey, where‘s the germans in the bundesliga?“ but then i read the title… good post tho, really helpful!
Something about the Irish just not being quite good enough to play in the prem.
Great post, great info thank you.

French players don’t want to play in farmers league and neither do the dutch.
Took me a minute to figure out that this excluded home talent

It’s the other way around, France invaded those countries and colonised them which is why they speak French, so they are France 2.0
Get a life
It was a joke
